Answer:

They will blink 4 times together in one minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount it takes for them to blink together is the least common multiple between the time it takes for each of them to blink together.

The red light blinks each 3 seconds.

The blue light blinks each 5 seconds.

The least common multiple between 3 and 5 is 15. So they will blink together each 15 seconds.

Each minute has 60 seconds. So they will blink 60/15 = 4 times together in one minute.

Find the lowest common multiple of 3 and 5, that is 15

the lights will blink together every 15 seconds

in 1 minute blink together \frac{60}{15} = 4 times

that is at 15, 30, 45 and 60

All you have to do here is multiply 230 by .5 and you get 115.

They are 115 inches apart on the map.

96 sq meters

Answer:

84 sq meters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

In order to solve this problem, one will have to divide the figure up into simple shapes. A picture is attached showing how the shape is divided up for this answer. Find the area of each region, then add up the results to find the total area.

2. Area of Region 1

As one can see, the length of (Region 1), as given is (6), the width is (3). To find the area multiply the length by the width.

Length * width

6 * 3

= 18

3. Area of Region 2

In (Region 2), the length is given, (12). However, one must find the width, this would be the size of the total side, minus the width of (Region 1). Multiply the length by the side to find the area.

Length * width

= 12 * (8 - 3)

= 12 * 5

= 60

4. Area of Region 3

In (Region 3), the length of the figure is (2), the width is (3). To find the area, multiply the length by the width.

Length * width

= 2 * 3

= 6

5. Total area

Now add up the area of each region to find the total rea,

(Region 1) + (Region 2) + ( Region 3)

= 18 + 60 + 6

= 84
