1/3 and 3/8
First, you would need to find the lowest common multiple.
It would be 24.
Change both fractions to fractions with a denominator of 24
1/3*8=8/24
3/8*3=9/24
You can see that 9 is greater that 8. Therefore 3/8 is greater.

3/8 is greater becuase when you make a common denominator of 24, 1/3 would be 8/24 and 3/8 would be 9/24. So 9/24 is greater than 8/24.

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.

A chemist recorded the change in temperature of a cooling liquid as −25.5°F over a 1.5 minute period. The temperature fell at a
Strike441 [17]

The rate of change in temperature is −17°F/min

<h3>Rate of change of a function</h3>

The formula for calculating the rate of change of a function is expressed as:

Rate of change = rise/run

This is also known as the slope of the function

Given the following parameters

Temperature = −25.5°F

Cooling time = 1.5mins

Determine the rate of change

Rate = −25.5°F/1.5min

Rate = −17°F/min

Hence the rate of change in temperature is −17°F/min
