Notice the tickmark on the angles, those angles are equal to each other.

now, notice the angle at the very top, the large triangle is really sharing it with smaller-inscribed triangle, and therefore is equal on both triangles.

therefore, the larger triangle, is similar with smaller-inscribed triangle by AA.

what the dickens does that mean?

\bf \cfrac{large}{small}\qquad \cfrac{4+5}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies \cfrac{9}{4}=\cfrac{5+x}{5}\implies 45=20+4x
\\\\\\
25=4x\implies \cfrac{25}{4}=x\implies 6\frac{1}{4}=x

Bubbles bakery has 24 oatmeal cookies, 36 vanilla bean cookies, 42 chocolate chip cookies. What is the greatest common factor bu
STatiana [176]

Answer:6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three groups of cookies as follows:

24   oatmeal

36   vanilla bean

42  chocolate chip

If we breack down into factors we get

24    2       24 = 2³ * 3        36    2   36 = 2²*3³         42   2   42 = 2*3*7

12     2                                 18    2                              21   3

6      2                                   9    3                                7   7

3      3                                   3    3                                1

1                                             1

Fom where we can get that biggest common factor is 6

24 ÷  6      =  4

36 ÷  6      =  6

42 ÷  6      =  7

Then Bakery will have  4 groups of oatmeal cookies, 6 of vanilla bean, and 7 chocolate chip
