Answer:

10, James got 10 correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 incorrect answer=-2 marks

5 incorrect answer=-10 marks

1 correct answer=4 marks

James has -10 marks for incorrect answers and James has 40 marks for correct answers. Because 10+30=40.

So James got 10 out of 15 answers correct.

Also, can you please, please, please give me brainliest? I need 2 more brainliest to level up! Please, Please, Please.

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest number that is divisible by two given numbers is called the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of those numbers.

What's the smallest number that is a multiple of 8 and also a multiple of 18?

One way to find out is to start making lists of multiples:

Multiples of 8:  8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and so on,

Multiples of 18:  18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, and so on.

This method can be a bit tedious, but in this case, it's clear that 72 is the LCM of 8 and 18.

Another method is to use the <u>prime factorization</u> of the two numbers.

Write 8 and 18 as the product of prime numbers; each number has a unique prime factorization.

8 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 2^3

18 = 2 x 3 x 3 = 2^1 x 3^2

To form the LCM, build a product of primes using the <u>highest exponent</u> in either of the two numbers.

LCM = 2^3 x 3^2 = 8 x 9 = 72.
