Answer:
Nate made a mistake. He should have got 24 as Least common factor.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given number are 8 and 12.
To find the GCF or LCF we have to list multiples.
For LCF
- List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
- Find the smallest number that is on all of the lists.
- This number is the LCM.
For GCF
- List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
- Find the Biggest number that is on all of the lists.
- This number is the GCF
The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24.
The Greatest common multiply of 8 and 12 is 4.
Hence, Nate is wrong. Nate should have found 24.

12/24 simplifies to 1/2, seeing as 12 is half of 24. :) Your answer is C.
Hello there,
So to find the area of anything, it's b x h and if the base of the tile is 12 you just divide 48 by 12.
48/12= 4
So the height of the tile is 4 inches
Hope this helped you!
1 & 5/8 because 7/8 is closer to 1 whole than 5/8
