Using the greatest common factor, it is found that the greatest dimensions each tile can have is of 3 feet.
---------------------------
- The widths of the walls are of <u>27 feet, 18 feet and 30 feet.</u>
- <u>The tiles must fit the width of each wall</u>, thus, the greatest dimension they can have is the greatest common factor of 27, 18 and 30.
To find their greatest common factor, these numbers must be factored into prime factors simultaneously, that is, only being divided by numbers of which all three are divisible, thus:
27 - 18 - 30|3
9 - 6 - 10
No numbers by which all of 9, 6 and 10 are divisible, thus, gcf(27,18,30) = 3 and the greatest dimensions each tile can have is of 3 feet.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y=2/3x+4. 4 is the y intercept. 2/3 is the slope. y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
What I always do to solve this, is find a common factor for each number first.
Usually 4 or 5 works best. I'll use 4.
4 goes into 80 20 times, which means that 4 = 5% of 80.
If 4 = 5%, and 48 = 12 x 4, then 48 must equal 60% of 80.
(Another way to solve this problem is: simplify 48 / 80. This simplifies to 3/5.
3/5 = 60%)!
Set up an equation of ratios as shown below:
h 24 ft 4
----- = ---------- = ---
4 6 ft 1
Cross multiplying the 1st and 3rd fractions, we get h=16 ft (answer)
