The least common multiple of 18 and 42 is 126. Sorry I don't know how to explain it.
Answer:
16 questions right = 80%
So Peter missed 4 questions.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
Option (2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression is, AX + B = C
AX + B = C
AX = C - B
C - B = 
= 
C - B = 
Let 
AX = 
= 
Since AX = C - B
Therefore, a = 1, b = 5
(-3a - 4c) = -35
3(1) + 4c = 35
3 + 4c = 35
4c = 32
c = 8
And (-3b - 4d) = -11
3(5) + 4d = 11
4d = -4
d = -1
Therefore, Option (2). X = 
will be the answer.
Remark
The trick to this question is realizing what you took 1/3 of. Did you take it of the 150000 or is it 1/3 of some total you have to find. I don't think you could come up with a third choice.
It turns out that the answer is 1/3 of a number you don't know.
Equation
(1/3) x = 150000 Multiply both sides by 3
3*(1/3) x = 150000 * 3
x = 150000 * 3
x = 450000
Conclusion
The amount the company makes is 450000 dollars / year.
Answer:
3.73 hours
Explanation:
In 1 hour, Lisa does 1/7th of the order while Bill does 1/8th of the order in an hour. To find out how long it will take them to fill the order, we have to:
Step 1:
Add the rate of both Lisa and Bill together
1/7 + 1/8
Step 2:
Since both denominators of the fractions are different, you have to find the least common multiple of 7 and 8
7·8= 56 8·7= 56
which is 56.
Step 3:
Then, you have to multiply the numerator of 1/7 with 8 and the numerator of 1/8 with 7.
1·8= 8 1·7= 7
The fractions would now have equal denominators:
Lisa: 8/56 Bill: 7/56
Step 4:
Now, you can add them together
8/56 + 7/56
which equals to 15/56. Both Lisa and Bill together completes 15/56th of the order in 1 hour.
Step 5:
15/56 is not the final answer as it is the RATE of them working together. To find how long it will take them total to complete the order, you must divide 56 with 15.
56/15
which is 3.73 hours in decimal form (rounded).
