Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the fraction 3/18 to 1/6, this will help a lot. Then, you just, find the LCM, and you can list out the mutliples to help you

6, 12, 18, 24, 39, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

It would be easiest to do 48

But that's not exactly what the question is asking

It's asking the LCM of 1/16 and 3/18

I wanted to show you the other way so you would be able to think of it in a different way which would be easier

You would just list out the multiples again.  

18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, 135, 153, 171, 189

16, 32, 48, 64, 80, 96, 112, 130, 146, 162, 178, 194

Ok, I give up on that

Let's just do 16*18 which is 288.

288 is your LCM

Sometimes multiplying is easier and other times listing it out is easier.

I hope this helped

Let me know if you have any questions

Can anyone explain these?
Paul [167]
The perimeter , width and length are all one dimensional so the preimeter of the resulting rectangle  will be 2.5 * 36 = 90.

The area  is 2 dimensional  whereas the vase and height are one dimensional so the area will be increased by a factor of 5^2  ( or 25)
New  rea =  36*25 =  900

solids are 3 dimensional  so the ratio of thereir volumes is  5^3 : 3^3
= 125:27

to answer the last 2 use the formula Volume = pi r^2 h  where r = radius and h = height of a cylinder

Karolina [17]

Home is located at the point (-5, 5)

The park is located at the point (-2, 3)

Apply the distance formula

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-5-(-2))^2 + (5-3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-5+2)^2 + (5-3)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{9 + 4}\\\\d = \sqrt{13}\\\\d \approx 3.6055513\\\\

When rounding to the nearest whole number, we get 4. This is the approximate distance (in blocks) from home to the park. I'm not sure why "4 blocks" isn't listed as a possible distance, so there may be a typo somewhere.

You'll apply this idea to the other pairs of points to find the other distances.
