The least common multiple (LCM) can be determined by factoring out the terms first,
165xy = (3)(11)(5)(x)(y)
77x³y = (7)(11)(x)(x)(x)(y)
Copy the factors writing off the repeated factors only once,
LCM = (3)(11)(5)(x)(y)(7)(x)(x)= 1155x³y
The answer is 1155x³y (first choice)
Answer:
y = 460 miles per hr
x = 500 miles per hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the planes be X any
Let their speeds be xmiles/hr and ymiles/hr respectively
x = y + 40 (assuming X is faster by 40miles/hr)
Distance travelled by X to meet Y = 0.75x
Distance travelled by Y to meet X = 0.75y
0.75x + 0.75y = 720 --------1
Put x = y + 40 in eqn 1
0.75(y+40) + 0.75y = 720
0.75y + 30 + 0.75y= 720
1.5y = 690
y = 460 miles per hr
x = 460 +40
= 500 miles per hr
