Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
8x175%= 14
I know there must be an equation to do this, but there is a simpler way.
Just factor number 72 into two numbers which, when multiplied, equal 72. Two of such numbers are 9 and 8, and you can see that the difference between those two numbers is just 1. So that is the answer to your question - the length of the patio is 9 feet, whereas the width is 8 feet.
Question 1:
73 is a prime number. It can only be divided by 1 and by itself.
The GCF of the three numbers:
54 36 73
1×54 1×36 1×73
2×27 2×18
3×18 3×12
6×9 4×9
6×6
GCF of 54, 36 and 73 is 1
GCF of 54 and 36 is 18
If we divide 54 apples into 18 baskets, we have 3 apples in each basket
If we divide 36 oranges into 18 baskets, we have 2 oranges in each basket
If we divide 73 bananas into 18 baskets, we have 4 bananas in each basket + one banana left over.
So the greatest number of identical fruit baskets we can make with the least amount of fruit left over is 18 baskets

Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The segment sum theorem tells you ...
AB +BC = AC
36 +(5x -9) = 54
5x = 27 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 27 from both sides
x = 5.4 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
