Answer:
140
Step-by-step explanation:
When working HCF and LCM problems, I like to think in terms of this little diagram:
(a [ b ) c]
It shows me one of the numbers is ab, the other is bc, the HCF is b and the LCM is abc. "a" and "c" must be relatively prime for "b" to be the HCF.

Here, we're given ...
b = 20
ab = 320
abc = 2240
Then ...
c = abc/(ab) = 2240/320 = 7
x = bc = 20(7) . . . . . . equivalently, x = (abc·b)/(ab) = (2240·20)/320
x = 140
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
80 minutes.......8 minutes played commercials....that means (80 - 8) = 72 minutes played music
so the ratio of music to commercials is : 72/8 which reduces to 9/1...so the ratio is 9:1 <=== ur answer
** pay attention to the wording, because if it would have asked for the ratio of commercials to music, it would have been 8/72....ratio would be 1:9
The money is a lot so it would be c
We can form this algebraic equation to work the equation out:
16 + 2x = -24
2x = -40
x - 20
Hope I helped.
