Answer:

It will take Winston 11 seconds to hop 44 meters and catch up to Tina

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation where x represents the number of seconds:

Tina will be represented by s + 33 since she goes 1 m/sec and she has a 33 meter head start, and Winston will be 4s. We need to find when Winston will catch up, so we need an equal sign.

s + 33 = 4s

Solve for s:

s + 33 = 4s

33 = 3s

11 = s

= 11 seconds

Then, plug in 11 as s to find how many meters he will go:

s + 33

11 + 33 = 44

= 44 meters

What is the lcm of 56 and 136
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

LCM(56,136)=952

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the LCM of two numbers, factorize both these numbers:

56=2\cdot 28=2\cdot 2\cdot 14=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 7=2^3\cdot 7\\ \\136=2\cdot 68=2\cdot 2\cdot 34=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 17=2^3\cdot 17

These two numbers have the common factor of 2^3.

Now multiply this common factor by the remaining factors:

LCM(56,136)=2^3 \cdot 7\cdot 17=952

Therefore, the LCM is 952.
