I have answered this question before. This should be in the Mathematics category. 

Given:
Bob has three kids whose ages has the product of 72. I will only be able to give you a set of 3 numbers to represent the ages. Had the sum of the ages been given, the specific ages would be provided.

I just did a prime factorization of 72.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3 =   1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72   ⇒ 2³ x 3²

There are a lot of possible combinations, here are a few.

1 x 8 x   9 = 72      ⇒ 1 + 8 + 9 = 18
1 x 4 x 18 = 72      ⇒ 1 + 4 + 18 = 23
2 x 4 x   9 = 72      ⇒ 2 + 4 + 9 = 15

Answer:

Explanation:

is naked feet warm by the fire, rubbing them at first, of course, with snow. The fire was a success. He was safe. He remembered the advice of the old-timer on Sulphur Creek, and smiled. The old-timer had been very serious in laying down the law that no man must travel alone in the Klondike after fifty below. Well, here he was; he had had the accident; he was alone; and he had saved himself. Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone. But it was surprising, the rapidity with which his cheeks and nose were freezing. And he had not thought his fingers could go lifeless in so short a time. Lifeless they were, for he could scarcely make them move together to grip a twig, and they seemed remote from his body and from him.

a letter to a friend describing any three occupations and which one you would like to take up when you grow up .mention why you
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Dear Susan,

I hope you are doing fine. During the last few weeks, I've been thinking about the different occupations in the world and which one would be the most suitable for me.

I become interested in three of them. The first one is a carpenter. They are talented people that can do any piece of furniture with wood. They have to be careful with machines and good with craftworks. The second occupation that I thought of is graphic design. Graphic designers work with computers creating beautiful posters, cards, brochures, and fixing photos for magazines. This job requires someone who can pay attention to details and has a creative mind. The last occupation that I considered is engineering. An engineer has to be extremely good at Maths and Physics since they are in charge of building bridges and skyscrapers. There can not be a mistake in their calculations.

When I grow up, I would like to become a graphic designer. I consider myself a creative person who enjoys drawing and editing photos on my computer. Besides, my family always tells me that I am good with anything related to design. What would you like to become when you grow up?

All the best,

Frank.

Explanation:

A letter has three main parts. First, we have the introduction. In this paragraph, we ask our friend how she is and introduces the letter's topic. In the second paragraph, which is the letter's body, we describe the different occupations. Lastly, we tell our friend which one we would like to take and give the reasons for this decision. After that, we ask her about the occupations that she likes and say our goodbyes.
