Given: 
3 children
Product of their ages is 72.

The sum of the ages of his kids is not stated.So we cannot pinpoint the actual 3 ages. We can only assume the combination of the 3 ages.

We do prime factorization of 72.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3  = 1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
1 x 2³ x 3² = 72

1 x 8 x 9 = 72
1 + 8 + 9 = 18

2 x 4 x 9 = 72
2 + 4 + 9 = 15

3 x 4 x 6 = 72
3 + 4 + 6 = 13

1 x 4 x 18 = 72
1 + 4 + 18 = 23

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Finding a permanent solution to ruined harvest and mass famines

Explanation:

What Egypt could have done differently to save itself from decline is "finding a permanent solution to ruined harvest and mass famines."

This is because the major reason that is attributed to the fall of the Egyptian Empire are the following:

1. Great disparity in wealth between the aristocrats and the lower class

2. Constant war from neigboring city states

3. Culture and religion from other states.

Hence, to solve these issues, is to have a stable economy that is sustainable. And to have a sustainable economy is to ensure the city state or nation can feed itself well all the times, regardless of the climate change.

However, ancient Egypt struggled to maintain their economic growth which rest mainly on agriculture due to change in climate that effect their agricultural produce.

Therefore, in this case, the correct answer is "finding a permanent solution to ruined harvest and mass famines."

Answer: Reconstruction

Explanation:

<em>In the "corrupt bargain" of 1877, Democrats allowed Republican Rutherford B. Hayes to become President and in exchange he ended </em><em><u>Reconstruction/Federal occupation</u></em><em> in the south what allowing Jim Crow to reign supreme there</em>

The presidential election of 1876 was a controversial one in that there were 4 states which had unresolved votes. Democratic candidate, Samuel J. Tilden had won the popular vote and was poised to win the electoral college as well but a deal was struck between Rutherford and the Democrats that he would withdraw Federal troops from the south which was the last thing enforcing Reconstruction in the South.
