Let's begin by breaking each number down into its prime factors: 4 = 2 x 2 5 = 5 6 = 2 x 3 Next, let's determine the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers 4, 5, and 6 by multiplying all common and unique prime factors of each number: common prime factors: 2 unique prime factors: 2,5,3 LCM = 2 x 2 x 5 x 3 = 60 Next, let's determine how many times 60 goes into 10,000 (excluding remainder): 10,000/60 = 166 and 2/3 Multiples of ALL 3 numbers (4,5,6) = 166 Next, let's determine the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers 4 and 5 by multiplying all common and unique prime factors of each number: common prime factors: none
unique prime factors: 2 x 2 x 5
LCM = 2 x 2 x 5 = 20 Next, let's determine how many times 20 goes into 10,000:
10,000/20 = 500
Multiples of BOTH numbers (4 and 5) = 500 Finally, let's subtract the multiples of ALL three numbers (4,5,6) from the multiples of BOTH numbers (4 and 5) to get our answer: Multiples of ONLY numbers 4 and 5 (excluding 6): 500 - 166 = <span>334</span>
12/x = 15/8
96 = 15x
x= 6.4 or 32/5
option B) 3 pounds of beef is needed to make 6 times the recipe.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
<u>step 1 </u>:
Mitch used 14 pounds of beef = 34 liters of beef strogonoff
'x' pounds of beef = 1 liter of beef strogonoff
<u>step 2</u> :
Rate = No. of pounds / No. of liters
(14 pounds / 34 liters) = (x pounds / 1 liter)
x = 14/34
x = 0.412
1 liter of beef strogonoff = 0.412 pounds of beef
<u>step 3</u> :
To make 6 times the recipe = 6 
0.412
= 2.5 pounds of beef ( approximately 3 pounds)
