Answer:
Is this algebra, or does "x" represent multiplying?
Step-by-step explanation:
The GCF of 72 and 36 is: 36
List out the factors of each number (72 and 36), and find the common factors between the two numbers.
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Factors of 72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Looking at the factors above, the common ones are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. But... considering we are looking for the "greatest" common factor, our highest number out of the listed ones is 36, making it the greatest common factor of 72 and 36.
The answer is 12.55 I think
Answer:
378 marbles are blue, and 270 marbles are red
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of ratio units must be multiplied by 6 to get the total number of marbles. Hence the number of blue marbles is 63×6 = 378, and the number of red marbles is 45×6 = 270.
