3 & 6 - LCM = 3. 3's multiples are 3, 6, 9,12, 16, etc. 6's multiples are 6, 12, 18, etc. therefore, the least common multiple is 6.
GCF - 3's factors are 1, 3, and 6's factors 1, 2, 3. so the greatest common factor is 3.

The perimeter of a triangle is 84. The longest side is 7 meters less than twice the length of the shortest side, x. The middle s
elixir [45]
Perimeter = Side + Side + Side
Side 1 = x
Side 2 = x + 7
Side 3 = 2x-7

Plug into the equation:
84 = x + (x + 7) + (2x-7)
84 = x + x + 7 + 2x - 7

Combine like terms:
84 = 4x

Divide by 4 and solve for x:
21 = x

Side 1 = 21

Side 2 = 28
21+7=28

Side 3 = 35
21(2) - 7 = 42 - 7 = 35

B. What is the volume of the prism in cm3? Show your reasoning. If you
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a rectangular prism is length × height × width

Length=7 1/2

Width= 15 1/2

Height=12

Volume of the prism is therefore:

7 1/2×12×15 1/2= 1395cm3

No of cubes with edge length 1/2 to fit into the prism will be:

Volume of cube is L*W*H

1/2*1/2*1/2= 1/8cm3

Therefore the no of cubes to fit into the Prism will be:

1395/(1/8)= 11160 cubes.

If one was stuck,the number of 1/2 edge length cube to fit into 1cm will be:

1/(1/8)= 8 cubes
