Answer: 42

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we have to find the lowest common multiple of 9, 12 and 18 and then add 6. This will be:

Multiple of 9 = 9, 18, 27, 36, 45

Multiple of 12 = 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

Multiple of 18 = 18, 36, 54, 72, 90

The lowest common multiple is 36. Ww will then add 6. This will be:

= 36 + 6

= 42

18) Let x be the number of coins in the pouch:

3x + 3 = 9; subtract 3 from each side:

3x + - 3 = 9 -3

3x = 6 . Now divide both side by 3:

x = 2 (in each pouch we have 2 coins)

19) SAME logic:

4x + 1 = 2x + 7; subtract 1 from each side:

4x + 1 - 1 = 2x + 7 - 1
4x = 2x + 6; now subtract 2x from each side:

4x - 2x = 2x + 6 - 2x

2x = 6   and x = 3 (each pouch contains 3 coins)
