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.

In the following problem, how much money does each person need to make!
NikAS [45]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

X(amount of people)

Y(Total amount made)

Y/X=40

Chad plus his other 5 friends makes 6 people.

Y/6=40

*6 *6

Y=240

The money would be split evenly.

Z(Amount each person needs to make)

240/60=Z

40=Z

They each need to make 40, which makes sense because they would be earning the amount they make.

a dime = 0.10...150 dimes = 150(0.10) = $ 15
a penny = 0.01....300 pennies = 300(0.01) = $ 3
