You would start with the equation:Let m=number of miles
49.98+0.12m=35.98+0.17m
Then solve for m
You would then get
49.98+0.12m=35.98+0.17m
-0.12m -0.12m
49.98=35.98+0.05m
-35.98 -35.98
14 = 0.05m
---- --------
0.05 0.05
280=m
(3/5 + -1/4)/(7/10)
get a common denominator of 20
3/5 * 4/4 =12/20
-1/4 * 5/5 = -5/20
7/10 *2/2 = 17/20
replace
(12/20 - 5/20)/(14/20)
add the top
(7/20)/(14/20)
copy dot flip
7/20 * 20/14
7/14
1/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Put these numbers into their prime factors.
18: 2 * 3 * 3
27: 3 * 3 * 3
12: 2 * 2 * 3
The LCM must have
two 2s
Three 3s
That's it
2*2 * 3 * 3 * 3
LCM = 108
648 might be a multiple of the three, but it's not the smallest one.
108 = 27 * 4
108 = 18 * 6
108 = 12 * 9
