Well to do this, we need to know the least common multiple (LCM) of 6 and 8. Lets list the factors out.

6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48

As we can see, the least common multiple of 6 and 8 is 24.

Now we know that there are 8 plates per package and 8 goes into 24 3 times, so naturally Shaniya needs 3 packages of plates

Hope this helped!!! :)

The average (arithmetic mean) of two numbers is 12. If the smaller of the two numbers is 6 less than the other number, what is t

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is average/arithmetic mean?

It means the "sum of the numbers" divided by the "number of numbers".

Let the two numbers be "x" & "y"

It says, average of 2 numbers is 12, so we can write:

$\frac{x+y}{2}=12\\x+y=2*12\\x+y=24$

Smaller number is 6 less than bigger number. Let's suppose x is the bigger one and y is the smaller one, so we can write:

x - 6 = y

Now we have 2 equations:

x + y = 24

x - 6 = y

Putting 2nd in 1st we get:

x + x - 6 = 24

Solving for x:

2x - 6 = 24

2x = 24 + 6

2x = 30

x = 30/2

x = 15

Now we know y = x - 6, so

y = 15 - 6 = 9

y = 9

The larger number is 15
