3 0

Answer:

  12

Step-by-step explanation:

The least common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 4 is 12. Adam would have to divide each rectangle into a minimum of 12 parts.

_____

His shading would be 4 parts (4/12 = 1/3) of one of them and 3 parts (3/12 = 1/4) of the other.

__

3 and 4 have no common factors, so their LCM is their product. 3×4 = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • DATE                         >> WATER LEVEL CHANGE (inches)
  • August 25                  >>  -0.75
  • September 8              >>  -1 3/ 8
  • September 22            >>  2.5
  • October 6                    >>  -1/2
  • October 20                 >>  1 7/8

<u>Total change:</u>

  • 1 7/8 - (-0.75) =
  • 1+ 7/8 + 3/4 =
  • 1 + 7/8 + 6/8 =
  • 1 + 13/8 =
  • 1+ 1 5/8 =
  • 2 5/8

The closest answer option is H. 2 3/4

You are painting the root of a boathouse. You are going to place the base of a ladder 12 feet from the boathouse. How long does
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

37 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder forms a right triangle as it elan's against the wall of the boat house.

Thus, the length of the ladder can be determined using Pythagorean theorem.

c² = a² + b²

c = length of ladder

a = 35 ft

b = 12 ft

Plug in the values

c² = 35² + 12²

c² = 1,225 + 144

c² = 1,369

c = √1,369

c = 37

Therefore, to reach the roof of the boathouse, the length of the ladder = 37 ft
