Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to find the prime factors of the three numbers

ex:

prime factor of 18= $2*3*3$

prime of 24= $2*2*2*3$

there is one 2 and one 3 in common

greatest common multiple 2*3=6

so the greatest common multiple is ten because it is the only one that can divide between all three evenly.

$10=10/10=1\\20=20/10=2\\50=50/10=5$

so 10 is your answer

Suppose the diameter of a circle is 6 units What is its circumference?

Kipish [7]

Answer:

18.84 estimated, 6π exactly

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

<u>The formula for finding the circumference of a circle is 2πr:</u>

In that case, all we need to do <em>first </em>is to divide the diameter by 2, so we can substitute that into the equation.

6 ÷ 2 = 3

So we have 2π × 3 to solve.

2π × 3 = 6π

We can estimate the circumference by multiplying by 3.14.

6 × 3.14 = 18.84

(actually multiplying by π gives 18.849... which is pretty close!)

Thus, the circumference is $\boxed{6\pi{\text{\:or\:18.84\:roughly}}}$ .

Hope this helps!

The perimeter of a rectangle is 42 inches, and its area is 110 square inches. find the length and width of the rectangle.

lorasvet [3.4K]

$p = 2w + 2l$ $p = 42$
$a = l * w$ $a = 108$

You want to make either the length or width variable (I chose the width variable to be by itself. It doesn't matter) by itself by:

Divide both sides by 2.
(p) ÷ 2 = (2w + 2l) ÷ 2
$2's$ $cancel$ $out$
$\frac{p}{2} = w + l$

Subtract both sides by either length or width depending on what variable you chose to make by itself (in this case I subtracted the length variable because I wanted the width variable by itself).
$\frac{p}{2} - l = w + l - l$
$l's$ $cancel$ $out$
p/2 - l = w

$a = l * w$

You replace w with the equation above p/2 - l = w
$a = l( \frac{p}{2} - l)$

Multiply out the L.
$a = \frac{p}{2}l - l^{2}$

Plug in all your numbers a = 110 and p = 42
$110 = \frac{42}{2}l - l^{2}$
$110 = 21l - l^{2$

Move everything to the left side so $l^{2}$ would be positive (makes the equation easier when $l^{2}$ is positive).
$l^{2} - 21l + 110 = 0$

Factor.
$(l -10)(l-11) = 0$

Make each parenthesis set equal to 0.
$l-11=0$ $l-10=0$

Add.
$l = 11$ $l = 10$

By doing this you solve for both the width and length so the answer is:
w = 11 L = 10
