Answer:

He spent $ 37.88 in first store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total amount he have initially = $ 100.00

Let x be the amount spent on first store,

⇒ The amount spent on second store = x

Thus, the total amount spent = x + x = 2x

Now, the amount left after shopping = Initial amount - Amount spent

= ( 100 - 2x ) dollars,

According to the question,

When he finished shopping he had $24.24 left

⇒ 100-2x = 24.24

⇒ - 2x = 24.24 - 100

⇒ -2x = -75.76

⇒ x = 37.88

Hence, he spent $ 37.88 in first store.

3 Sean has 8-inch pieces of toy train track and Ruth has 18-inch pieces of train track. How
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest number that is divisible by two given numbers is called the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of those numbers.

What's the smallest number that is a multiple of 8 and also a multiple of 18?

One way to find out is to start making lists of multiples:

Multiples of 8:  8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and so on,

Multiples of 18:  18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, and so on.

This method can be a bit tedious, but in this case, it's clear that 72 is the LCM of 8 and 18.

Another method is to use the <u>prime factorization</u> of the two numbers.

Write 8 and 18 as the product of prime numbers; each number has a unique prime factorization.

8 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 2^3

18 = 2 x 3 x 3 = 2^1 x 3^2

To form the LCM, build a product of primes using the <u>highest exponent</u> in either of the two numbers.

LCM = 2^3 x 3^2 = 8 x 9 = 72.

Without dividing, select the number that is divisible by 3.
Minchanka [31]
Answer: B. 1125
The answer is B because there is a special method when dividing by 3 to make sure it is actually able to be divided. You add the all the digits together, for example the digits in 1125, the total sum is 9 and if the total sum is able to be be divided by 3 then the whole number can be divided by 3.

Angle JKL is 54 degrees. What is the measure of angle MKL? *
hoa [83]

Answer:

MKL = 36°

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 6) + (6x + 12) = 54°

3x + 6x + 6 + 12 = 54

9x + 18 = 54

9x = 54 - 18

9x = 36

x = 36/9

x = 4

MKL = 6x + 12

MKL = 6(4) + 12

MKL = 24 + 12

MKL = 36°

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

c = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3c - 7 = 1

add 7 to both sides

1/3c = 8

now multiply 3 to both sides

c = 24
