Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First prime factorize each number; this means breaking up the number into the product of only prime numbers.

24 = 2^3*3

36 = 2^2*3^2

72 = 2^3*3^2

Looking at these three numbers, we see that the biggest number they share is of the form: 2^2*3 , where is just 12.

Thus, the answer is B.

Hope this helps!

Answer:B

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the GCF by seeing if the number is divisible so for 9 24/9 isn’t a integer so no for 12 24 36 and 72 are divisible so it maybe the answer for 24 36/24 isnt a integer for 18 24/18 isn’t a integer

Three married couples go to a movie theater. if they sit together in a row of 6 empty seats, find the probability that each woma
Ganezh [65]

Given are three married couples.

So, let us assume there are 3 men and 3 women

They are sitting in a row of 6 empty seats

There is a definite order constraint that each woman will sit left to her husband. The first woman gets 3 options to choose from 3 available seats. The second woman has two options left as already one seat is filled by the first woman. The last woman has one option left. So, it is 3*2*1

So, number of ways is 3! = 3*2*1 = 6 ways.

professor190 [17]

Answer: 53/5, 101/20

Step-by-step explanation:

10.6 is =  106/10. Then divide both numerator and denominator by 2. Then it equals 53/5.

5.05 = 505/100. Then divide both numerator and denominator by 5. This will equal 101/20.

Express the fractions 1/2, 3/16, and 7/8 with an LCD
12345 [234]
You first need to find the LCD (lowest common denominator). You will need to find the smallest number that is a multiple of all numbers that is the denominator (2, 16, 8). Or, to say it another way, all the numbers in the denominator need to be a factor of this number. 

You can find this by first checking if the largest number that is the denominator-- in this case 16-- is already the LCD, which means 16 is divisible by all the other numbers. 

If this does not work, then multiply all the numbers together to get the LCD-- since you multiplied them together, you know that they will all be factors of the product. 

However, you will be able to see that 16 is indeed the lowest common denominator: 

2 × 8=16 

8 × 2=16 

16 × 1=16 

So, after you find the LCD, multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the number that you would need to multiply the denominator to get the LCD (the whole point is that you want to get the denominator to be the LCD, but to do that you need to multiply both the top and bottom by the same number to keep the fraction the same). 

(1/2) x (8/8)= 8/16 

(3/16) x (1/1)= 3/16 

(7/8) x (2/2)= 14/16
