Answer: Yes, Kevin can water both plants together again.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  Kevin waters his ivy every third day, and his cactus every fifth day

such that the number of days after Kevin will water both plants together again=least common multiple of 3 and 5= 15

Thus, after 15 days Kevin can water both plants together again.

As in February, there are 28/29 days , thus if he waters plants before 13/14 february respectively[28-15=13, 19-15=14], then he will sure water both plants in february again.

 No, he will not because there is only 27-29 days in February and 15 is the only common multiple of 3 and 5.

The difference of 9 and the quotient of a number t and 6 is 5
Strike441 [17]
Assuming you are supposed to solve for the variable "t",

9 - (t ÷ 6) = 5

Subtract 9 from both sides.

9 - 9 - (t ÷ 6) = 5 - 9

Simplify.

- (t ÷ 6) = -4

Distribute -1 throughout the parenthesis.

-t ÷ -6 = -4

Multiply both sides by -6.

-t ÷ -6 × -6 = -4 × -6

Simplify.

-t = 24

Divide both sides by -1.

-t ÷ -1 = 24 ÷ -1

Simplify.

t = -24
