1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2
I got 1/2 because if you add 1/4 and 1/4 you'd get 2/4, and when you simplify 2/4 you'd get 1/2.
1) 5 cups of yellow paint; because if 10 cups of yellow paint are used for 2 cups of blue paint, then you would use 5 cups of yellow paint to even out the pigment of one cup of blue.
2) 3 cups of blue paint, and 15 cups of yellow paint
3) 5 cups of yellow for every cup of blue paint
4) for every cup of blue paint 5 cups of yellow are used to get the same shade of green

Answer: 126</h3>
=====================================================
Work Shown:
Let x and y be the two numbers.
We're given x = 162 and the variable y is unknown.
We're also given LCM = 1134 and HCF = 18
So,
LCM = (x*y)/HCF
1134 = 162*y/18
1134 = (162/18)y
1134 = 9y
9y = 1134
y = 1134/9
y = 126
The other number is 126
---------------------
Notice that
showing that 18 is the highest common factor (HCF) of the numbers 162 and 126. This partially confirms the answer.
Now let,
- A = multiples of 162
- B = multiples of 126
So,
- A = 162, 324, 486, 648, 810, 972, 1134, 1296, ...
- B = 126, 252, 378, 504, 630, 756, 882, 1008, 1134, 1260, ...
We see that 1134 is in each list of multiples and the smallest such common item. So the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 162 and 126 is 1134. This helps fully confirm the answer.
Given:
1st week: caught 45 salamanders and put leg bands on them
2nd week: caught 50 salamanders and 3 have leg bands
3/50 = 0.06 of the salamander population have leg bands.
45 / 0.06 = 750 total number of salamanders
<span>45/750 = 0.06 or 6% </span>
The reasonable estimate of the number of salamanders by the pond is 750 salamanders.
