E. negative one property of multiplication.
Let x be the number of Dalmatians without black spots.
So, x+6x is close to 500, which means x=71.
71*7=497, which is the total number of Dalmatians.
Giving away 6% of this will give you around 467 Dalmatians left.
Answer:467 Dalmatians
Assuming LCD means Lowest Common Denominator
Assuming by "and" you mean adding the two
Well, you go by the multiples of 7;
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63,<u> 70</u>
Multiples of 10;
10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, <u>70</u>, 80, 90, 100
Straight away you can see the lowest common multiple is 70,
Now to go about adding them,
2/7 * 10 (both sides) , 20/70
9/10 * 7 (both sides) , 63/70
Then you add the two; 20/70 + 63/70 - now we can add them because they share the same denominator
20/70 + 63/70 = 83/70 = 1 whole 13/70 (simplified)
<u>The LCD is 70
Quick tip, </u>to find a common multiple (not necessarily the lowest) multiply the two denominators.
