Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide by the prime numbers in increasing order until you find all the prime factors.
The first few prime numbers are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17
1764/2 = 882
882/2 = 441
441/3 = 147
147/3 = 49
49/7 = 7
7/7 = 1
Hey so if every time the minute hand clicks it turns 13.5 degrees and the question is asking us to find the fraction of a circle it covers in a third of a minute we must divide 13.5 by 3.
1) 13.5 / 3 = 4.5 degrees
Now we must find out what fraction of a circle 4.5 degrees is. If a circle is 360 degrees and the minute hand turns 4.5 degrees every third of a minute then we must divide 4.5 by 360 to get our answer.
2) 4.5/60
Finally let's simplify our answer
3) (4.5 / 60) / 1.5 = 3/40
ANSWER: The fraction of the circle the minute hand covers every third of a minute is 3/40
I don’t know so I gues I won’t be able to help
