Answer:

<h3>6 inches</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Casey and Stephanie order a rectangular cake of dimension 24in by 18in, to get the side length of the largest piece of square, we will find the greatest common factor of both dimension as shown:

24 = 2 * 2 * (2 * 3)

24 =  (2 * 3) * 4

24 = 6*4

18 = (2*3)*3

18 = 6*3

From both factors you an see that the common GCF is 6. This shows that the length of the largest square pieces into which Casey and Stephanie can cut the cake is 6 inches.

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the line AB divided into 7 equal parts.

It is given that point P partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 3:4. It means 3 parts are before P and 4 partes are after P.

It is given that point Q partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 4:3. It means 4 parts are before Q and 3 partes are after Q.

It is given that point R partitions the directed line segment from A to B in2:5. It means 2 parts are before R and 5 partes are after R.

It is given that point S partitions the directed line segment from A to B in 5:2. It means 5 parts are before S and 2 partes are after S.

From the below figure we can say that point S is closest to point B.

It is also written as

A

A

Therefore option 4 is correct.
