If you just want to know what is the least common multiple of 20 and 15, it is 60. Usually, this is written as
lcm(20,15) = 60
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.
Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.
Total of scale usage is 2
b) if you have  coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.

X=11, set 10x+5x+15=180
                 15x+15=180, subtract 15 from 180= 165, then divide 165 by 15
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
1-c
2-b
3-a
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 7y=14
 y=2
 -7y=-14
 y=2
so the equation has one solution
2. 0=0
so the equation has infinite solution
3. 0=2 false
so the equation has no solution
