Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Factors of 54
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27
Factors of 72
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36
Factors of 18
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18.
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors and prime factorization of 72, 54 and 18. The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 72, 54 and 18 is 18.
Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?
5/6 ( )
so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have
5/6 ( s )
but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?
5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )
now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.
2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15
we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.
= 4/5
so our final answer would be:
5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!
The answer is b. I just did the question and that is the answer
Hi there!
Since the scale is 1 in = 4 ft, we divide both the length and width by 4 to get the new length and width with the scale factor applied.
16 / 4 = 4
12 / 4 = 3
So, the
length = 4
width = 3
Hope this helps!
