The greatest number of packages of baked items that can be sold is 10

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that there are 50 cupcakes and 160 cookies to be sold at the school bake sale

To find: greatest number of packages of baked items that can be sold

Each package has the same number of cupcakes and same number of cookies with none left over

So, we have to find the greatest common factor of 50 and 160

The greatest number that is a factor of two (or more) other numbers.

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor.

<em><u>Greatest common factor of 50 and 160:</u></em>

The factors of 50 are: 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50

The factors of 160 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 80, 160

Then the greatest common factor is 10

So the greatest number of packages sold is 10

<em><u>Each package will contain:</u></em>

Given that there 50 cupcakes and 160 cookies

<em><u>Number of cupcakes in 1 package:</u></em>

\rightarrow \frac{50}{10} = 5

<u><em>Number of cookies in 1 package:</em></u>

\rightarrow \frac{160}{10} = 16

So each package has the same number of cupcakes and same number of cookies with none left over

Mrs.Stone is three times older than her younger daughter, Joyce, but only two times older than her older daughter, Alex. How old
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

54 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Joyce age = x

Alex age = y

3x = 2y - - - (1)

y - 9 = 2(x - 9)

y - 9 = 2x - 18

-9 + 18 = 2x - y

9 = 2x - y

y = 2x - 9 - - (2)

3x = 2y

3x = 2(2x - 9)

3x = 4x - 18

18 = 4x - 3x

18 = x

Hence,

Mrs stone is 3 * 18 = 54 years

Xelga [282]

Answer: 1208.96

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cylinder is (\pi)(4^2)(4)=64\pi

The volume of the prism is (6)(12)(14)=1008

So, the total volume is 1008+64\pi=\boxed{1208.96}
