Complete Question
Marla sawed a 12-meter wood plank into 8 equal pieces. Which statement best explains how Marla cut the wood plank?
a) She cut the wood into pieces that are each 1/3 meter long.
b) She cut the wood into pieces that are each 1/2 meter long.
c) She cut the wood into pieces that are each 1 meter long.
d) She cut the wood into pieces that are each 1 1/2 meter long.
Answer:
d) She cut the wood into pieces that are each 1 1/2 meter long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Marla sawed a 12-meter wood plank into 8 equal pieces.
Hence,
8 equal pieces = 12 meter
1 equal pieces = x meter
Cross Multiply
8 × x = 1 × 12
x = 12/8 meters
x = 3/2 meters long
x = 1 1/2 meters long.
Therefore, Option d is the correct Option
1 x 5 = 5 + 3 = 8
tell me if it’s not the answer your looking for
Since it's a multiple of 24, it has to be a multiple of the factors of 24.
Factors of 24:
2,3,4,6,8,12
You can use some of this knowledge to help create the number.
Since the # needs to be a multiple off 2, the last digit needs to be an 8
All numbers that are multiples of 3 have the property that all of their digits added together have to be a number that is evenly divisible by 3.
so your number will look like:
_ _ _ _ _ 8
so start trying combinations for the other 5 digits that give you a number that is a multiple of 3: 3,6,9,12,15, ect. If you can't find one, then it's impossible
Answer:
(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
the sum of n and 5 is (n + 5), then multiply by 3 gives
3(n + 5)
The result is at least 17 which means it must be greater than or equal to 17
3(n + 5) ≥ 17
