TRUE HOPE THIS HELPS BC I DONT REALLY UNDERSTAND BUT I CAN SAY THAY AT LEAST TRIED
This is a common factor problem.
Pencils come in a pack of 12
Erasers come in a pack of 10
First, break the number into their prime factors(the idea is that we will break the number down into its smallest multiples, which are prime numbers):
10 = 2 * 5
12 = 2 * 2 *3
So now we take the unique multiples of each number, and when we multiply them together, we will get the smallest number that both 10 and 12 can be divided into(this is what the problem is asking for)
We have (2*2*3) that comes from 12, and the only unique number that comes from the 10 is (5)
So now, we multiply:
2*2*3*5=60
However, this isn't exactly out answer. Now we have to divide our answer by the number of each this in the pack to know how many packs to buy.
60/12=5 packs of pencils
60/10= 6 packs of erasers
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions!!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
6 quarters and 9 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
6 quarters is equal to $1.50. 6 nickels is equal to $0.30. Those together equal $1.80, then add the three nickels bringing your total to $1.95.
It would take about 57 hours for the number of spores to be less than 500 spores.
<h3>
Exponential Function</h3>
An exponential function is in the form:
y = abˣ
Where y,x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplication factor.
Let y is the number of pores after x hours.
a = 6200, b = 100% - 20% = 0.8, hence to be less than 500 spores:
(x/5) * ln(0.8) < ln(0.08)
x > 56.4 hours
It would take about 57 hours for the number of spores to be less than 500 spores.
