Let us rewrite this equation as:
<em>160/x = some number + 4/x
</em>we can assume that some number of x's can fit into 160, but x is greater than 4 so we have a remainder.
We can figure out by using the remainder that x is completely divisible into (160-4) or 156. Knowing this we can assume that x is some factor of 156 that is greater than 4. 
Let us list the factors of 156
1,2,3,4,6,12,13,26,39,52,78,156
Now let us refer back to the restrictions we put on x.
<em>x must be > 4 as anything less than 4 would divide at least 1 more time into it. So now we are left with a bunch of other factors. And the cool thing is that all of the factors excluding anything that is = or < 4 all work for getting a remainder of 4. Thus we can use the largest factor and set it equal to x.
</em>So x = 156
then if we divide 315 by x or <em>315/x = 315/156 = 2 and a remainder of 3
so the answer would be 3.</em>

Lainey is sliding down a water slide that is 376 feet long at a rate of 47 feet per second. How long will it take Lainey to trav
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the water slide is 376 feet and Lainey is sliding down at a rate of 47 feet per second. That is her speed.

Speed is given as distance divided by time or the time rate of displacement.

Therefore, time is:

Time = distance / speed

Therefore, the time it will take Lainey to get from the top to the bottom is:

Time = 376 / 47 = 8 seconds

It will take her 8 seconds to get from the top to the bottom.
