We know:

LCM(a,\ b)=\dfrac{ab}{GCF(a,\ b)}

We have

GCF(a,\ b)=2,\ LCM(a,\ b)=20,\ a\leq12,\ b\leq12

Substitute:

20=\dfrac{ab}{2}\qquad|\cdot2\\\\ab=40

40=1\cdot40=2\cdot20=4\cdot10=5\cdot8

Only 4 and 10 meet the requirements of the question.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

40 and 1 NOT, because 40 > 12

20 and 2 NOT, because 20 > 12

5 and 8 NOT because GCF(5, 8) = 1

Can anybody help me with this? <br> This question is confusing and I don't get it.
Lunna [17]

Answer:

JH = 8, GH = 12, and GJ = 10.6

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Midsegment Theorem, a segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is half the length of the third side.

GH = ½ DE

JH = ½ DF

GJ = ½ EF

DE is 24, so GH = 12.

JH is half of DF.  Since G is the midpoint of DF, DG is also half of DF.  So JH = DG = 8.

GJ is half of EF.  Since H is the midpoint of EF, HE is also half of EF.  So GJ = HE = 10.6.

Answer:

D.648 inches​

Step-by-step explanation:

A yard is a unit that mostly used in America and Canadia to measure the length of something field-size, so it's used a lot in sport. One yard equal to three feet, while one foot equals to 12 inches. There is a higher unit than yard called miles which equals to 1760 yards or 1.60934 kilometers.

Since the measurement is 18 yards, the length in feet will be: 18 yards * 3 feet/yard= 54 feet.

The measurement in inch will be: 54 feet * 12 inches/feet = 648 inches.
