On Monday he reads 2 pages, on Tuesday he reads 6 pages (triple of 2: 2 + 2 + 2 = 6), on Wednesday he reads 18 pages (triple of 6: 6 + 6+ 6 = 18), on Thursday he reads 54 pages (triple of 18: 18 + 18 + 18 = 54).
0.49 is the answer because that is <span>the approximate probability</span>
12 hours..........
+ - = 1
Multiply by 12 to clear the fractions
3t + 2t - 4t = 12
t = 12 hrs to fill the pool
the Highest common factor of 130,260,390 = 130
130 = 2⋅5⋅13
260 = 2⋅2⋅5⋅13
390 = 2⋅3⋅5⋅13
Common multipliers (130; 260; 390): 2, 5, 13
Now to find the highest Common factor you need to multiply the common factors
Answer: (130 ; 260 ; 390) = 2 ∙ 5 ∙ 13 = 130
