mike charges 100 dollars service charge plus 65 dollars per hour.
amy charges 40 dollars service charge plus 80 dollars per hour.
the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * x.
the cost to repair from amy is 40 + 80 * x.
let x = 3 and you get:
the cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * 3 = 295 dollars.
the cost to repaid from amy is 40 + 80 * 3 = 280 dollars.
as long as the time to repair is 3 hours or less, the cost to repair will be cheaper from amy.
O get the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 15 and 8 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the factors which appear in any column and multiply them:
<span><span>15: 35</span><span>8: 222 </span><span>LCM: 22235</span></span>
<span>The Least Common Multiple (LCM) is: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 120</span>
One way is that you can just factor it out: (x+2)(x+2)(x+2)
For the first pair, you get

.
Then do

*

That will be

So the answer is 6
