Answer:

48 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

5:2:4

Sarah: 5

Natasha:2

Richard:4

To find out how many sweets Richard got, we need to use 60 as the lcm. Since, we have a definite constant of 60 we need to divide it by the presiding ratio.

60/5 = 12

That means for a ratio of 1, everyone in the group recieves 12.

Now, we plug it in for each of the members.

5x = Sarah

2x = Natasha

4x = Richard

Sarah = 60 sweets

Natasha = 24 sweets

Richard = 48 sweets

Natasha2012 [34]
Hope this isn't too confusing

All of the numbers have different shortcuts.
1. Yes. Divisible by 4: if last two digits are divisible by 4 then the whole number is yes)
2. No. Divisible by 6: it must be even and when you add them up, (44) it must be divisible by 3 (no, 44 is not divisible by 3)
3. Divisible by 8: ( last 3 numbers are divisible by 8 (312) = 39 ( yes it is)
4 Yes. Divisible by 11: ( sum of digits at odd places and sum of digits at even spaces,is either 0 or divisible by 11) yes, 278949. (2+8+9) + (7+9+9)= 19 + 25 = 44 and 44 is divisible by 11)
5. No. Divisible by 12 (divisible by 3 and 4, sum of digits is divisible by 3 ; and last 2 digits divisible by 4: 87654395 : 52/3= 18 (yes) 95/4(no) this number not divisible by 12
6. No. Divisible by 15: divisible by 3 and 5 ..87654385 = 46/3 = 15..(No) divisible by 5 yes. The number is not divisible by 15

Andrej [43]
First, put the numbers in order
A. 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,8,9.....median (middle number) is 5..when there is an odd number of data values, there will only be one median.
B. 14,14,15,16,17,18,19,20....if there is an even number of data points, there will be 2 middle numbers. In that case, u add the 2 middle numbers and divide by 2 to find the median. (16 + 17) / 2 = 33/2 = 16.5 is ur median.
