40% of money on books
100-40=60
60% left

50% of remaining on toys
50% of 60%=30%
he has 21 left
21=30%

find 100%

$21=30%
divide by 3
$7=10%
times 10
$70=100%

he had $70 at first

 <span>for the first part, realize that the hour and minute hands are moving at different rates; in one hour, the minute hands moves all the way around the face of the clock, and thus moves a total of 360 degrees or 2 pi radians; the hour hand moves only 1/12 away around the clock, so covers only 30 degrees or Pi/6 radians. 

Now, the LINEAR distance traveled by the tip of each hand is also determined by the length of the hand. In the case of the minute hand, it sweeps out a circle of radius 10 cm, so traces out a circle of radius 10 cm. Since the circumference of a circle is 2*pi*r, the minute hand (remember it made one complete cycle) covers a distance of 2*pi*10cm=20 Pi cm 

The hour hand covers only 1/12 a circle, but that circle is only 6 cm in radius, so the distance traveled by the tip of the minute hand is: 

1/12 *[2 *pi*r]=1/12*[12*pi]=pi 

so the difference is 19pi 

for the last part, you should draw a diagram of the two hands, the minute hand is 10 cm in length, the hour hand is 6 cm in length, and they are 30 degrees apart...from that drawing, see if you can figure out the remaining leg of the triangle you can form from them 

good luck</span><span>

This is a lowest common multiple question.
to find the lowest common multiple, you need to find the prime factors of the two numbers:
8 = 2 , 2 , 2
12 = 2 , 2 , 3
Take out duplicates:
2,2,2,3
and multiply them together:
2*2*2*3 = 24
and that is your answer.
Easy peasy.
