Answer:

The greatest number of kits she can create is 6 kits

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the above question using the greatest common factor method.

We have to find the factors of 18 and 12

The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

Then the greatest common factor is 6.

Therefore, greatest number of kits that she can create is 6 kits

The number of sedimentary rocks in each kit

18 sedimentary rocks /6 kits = 3 sedimentary rocks

The number of Metamorphic rocks in each kit =

12 metamorphic ones/ 6 kits = 2 metamorphic rocks

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Ok, she walks 3 miles to and from the library.

So in total, she walks 3 miles two times, then in one week, she walks 2*3mi = 6miles.

She says that she walked about 300 miles in total.

We must see if 300 miles is a multiple of 6 miles.

300mi/6mi = 50.

This means that she would walk about 300 miles since she started counting if she went to the library and back home exactly 50 times (again, since she started counting).

And she does this once a week, then if she started counting 50 weeks ago, then it is possible,

How to do exterior angle
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The exterior angles of a polygon all add to 360, if you need to find an exterior angle when given the number of sides and that all angles are equal you simply do: 360/ number of sides.
When you need to find the exterior angle when given an interior angle, you do: 180- interior angle.

Hope this helps :)
