Not sure if the 2 at the end is part of it all because with it the GCF can only be 1

but,

the GCF of 24a, 3b and 36ab is 3.

Answer:

The GCF of 24a, 3b and 36ab is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 24 is = 24a/2a = 12 , where 2 is the first factor

= 12/2 = 6

= 6/2 = 3

= 3/3 = 1

factors of 24 : 2a, 2, 2, 3.

factors of 3 : 3

To find the factors of 36ab; 36ab/2ab = 18

= 18/ 2 = 9

= 9/3 = 3

= 3/3 = 1

factors of 36ab: 2, 2, 3, 3

So, the highest or greatest common factors within 24a, 3b and 36ab = 3

Chris used 45 meters of fencing to enclose a circular garden. What is the approximate radius of the garden,rounded to the neares

kobusy [5.1K]

The length of the fencing corresponds to the length of the perimeter of the garden:
$p=45 m$
We also know that the perimeter of a circle is given by:
$p=2 \pi r$
where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting together the two equations, we have
$2 \pi r = 45$
from which we can find r, the radius of the garden:
$r= \frac{45}{2 \pi}= \frac{45}{2 \cdot 3.14}=7.17 m$
