Answer: About 3 hours and 5 minutes to paint the room together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sally can paint 1/5 of the room in an hour and Steve can paint 1/8 of the room in an hour.

Room/Hour

1/5 ± 1/8 =8/40  

8/40+5/40=13/40

How long to paint the room?

13/40 x 1= 40/13

40÷13=3.0777

So the answer will be Sally and Steve can paint the room in about 3 hours and 5 minutes

Answer:

She should multiply her current balance by 1.052.

Step-by-step explanation:

Her investment is an account with a simple interest of 5.2% per year.

So in one year, she will have 100% + 5.2% = 105.2% of her initial amount. To find the multiplier, we divide by 100%. So

105.2%/100% = 1.052

She should multiply her current balance by 1.052.

what is the smallest number which is a multiple of both 8 and 12? so, an multiple of 8 must have 2 as a factor at least 3 times. Similarly, multiples of 12 have at least two 2's and one 3. so we need 2x2x2x3 or 24 if every factor is to be included.

I'm not the best at explaining but you can search google to get the better Idea.
