Answer:
81 is the LCM of 81 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
81 is the smallest (least) number that both (common) 81 and 3 "go into" (multiple)
81 goes into 81.
3 goes into 81.
81 is the smallest number that they both go into.
The answer to what you have there is -55 using order of operations. 5 times -6 is -30. 5 times -5 is -25. add. You get -55.
For this case what you need to know is that the original volume of the cookie box is:
V = (w) * (l) * (h)
Where,
w: width
l: long
h: height.
We have then:
V = (w) * (l) * (h) = 48 in ^ 3
The volume of a similar box is:
V = (w * (2/3)) * (l * (2/3)) * (h * (2/3))
We rewrite:
V = ((w) * (l) * (h)) * ((2/3) * (2/3) * (2/3))
V = (w) * (l) * (h) * ((2/3) ^ 3)
V = 48 * ((2/3) ^ 3)
V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3
Answer:
the volume of a similar box that is smaller by a scale factor of 2/3 is:
V = 14.22222222 in ^ 3
Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
So, I would set this up as a proportion-
72 x
90 100
Cross multiply-
100 x 72 = 7200
Divide-
7200/90 = 80
Subtract-
100 - 80 = 20
So, it is a 20% decrease
