Total ratio = 2 + 1 = 3

Number of men = 2/ 3 × 24

Answer: Find the lowest common denominator of the 2 denominators

Step-by-step explanation:

The common in both denominator is 15.

3: 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30

5: 5,10,15,20,25.30,35,40,43,50

Since 5x3 is 15, 1/5 x 3/3= 3/15

Since 3x5 is 15, 2/3 x 5/5= 10/15

3/15 is equivalent to 1/5 and 10/15 is equivalent to 2/3.

3/15 + 10/15 is equal to 13/15

13/15 can't be simplified because they are both odd numbers and they have less than 2 factors.

Hope this helped! Have a nice day! :D

Find the area of the triangle with the given measurements. Round the solution to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Rama09 [41]

Check the picture below.

now, we have a triangle with all three sides, thus we can use Heron's Area Formula on the triangle.

$\bf \qquad \textit{Heron's area formula} \\\\ A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad \begin{cases} s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=10\\ b=26.695\\ c=22\\ s=29.3475 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{29.3475(29.3475-10)(29.3475-26.695)(29.3475-22)} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{29.3475(19.3475)(2.6525)(7.3475)}\implies A\approx \sqrt{11066.007} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill A\approx 105.195~\hfill$
