Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

No of tulips = 60

No of daffodils = 72

We need to find the greatest number of bouquets the florist can make if the florist will make bouquets with the same number of tulips and the same number of daffodils in each using all the flowers.

It would mean that we need to find the HCF of 60 and 72

Prime factorisation of 60 = 2×2×3×5

Prime factorization of 72 =  2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

Highest common factor or HCF = 2×2×3 = 12

So, the florist can make 12 bouquets as maximum number.

D. 10 because if you replace x with 10, subtract it with 1 it equals 9. Then 9 divided by 3 equals three so k=3 which is correct

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

I turned the fractions into decimals. to do that your do exactly as it tells you!

4 divided by 5 = 0.8

so she has 0.8 ounces of juice (That not alot lol I would not be satisfied) now for how much she drank...

3 divided by 4 =0.75

0.80 - 0.75 = 0.05

She drank 0.05 ounces

Hello people again please help
densk [106]
Ok so a triangle is equal to 180 degrees!!!
So with that info u can make a crazy little equation
180=70+68+47+x
Ok then you add 70,68 and 47
180=185+x
Ok now u have to subtract 185 on both sides
And get the answer -5=x or x=-5 (same thing)
