Okay, so the rate is 1 job / hours, so:
1/3 + 1/7 (This covers both their work rates) = 1/n (n represents the time it take for them to work together)
Get the LCD:
7/21+ 3/21 = 1/n
10/21 = 1/n
Cross multiply:
10n = 21
n = 2.1 
It will take them 2.1 hours, or 2 hours and 6 minutes

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Therefore the maximum number of bouquets is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, Angelina has 24 tulip and 36 roses.

To find the number bouquets, we need the find out the g.c.d (greatest common divisor) of 24 and 36.

24= 2×2×2×3

36=2×2×3×3

The common factors are = 2,2,3

The g.c.d of 24 and 36 is =2×2×3

                                         = 12

Therefore the maximum number of bouquets is 12.

Find the least common denominator for these fractions. Enter your answer in<br> the space provided.
julsineya [31]

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 and 1/6 are fractions.

As we directly can't add fractions whenever denominators are different, so we will have to find out the Least common multiple of 4 and 6.

The LCM Of 4&6 will be 12, so we will write 12 instead of 4&6.

Now, 4*3=12, that is why we will have to multiply the numerator and denominator with 3.

1*3/4*3 = 3/12

Same thing applies to 1/6. In order to get 12 in the denominator we need to multiply 2 with numerator and denominator both.

1*2/6*2= 2/12

However, we have two new fractions with same denominator now, that is 3/12 and 2/12

We can directly add the numerators now, as we have the same denominator. So 3+2/12= 5/12 would be my final answer. (addition of like fractions)

5/12
