No shel will not have enough tile. If you don't know the dimensions of the actual tile how will you solve. If you have a closet 18 square feet it could be 9 ' x 2 ' = 18 square feet. If the tiles were 12" x 6" you would need 36 tiles. If the closet was 6' x 3' = 18 square feet you could have the tiles 12" x 6" = 36 tiles. So you need to know the dimensions of the tile.
X=-3
7+4x=-5
-7 -7
4x=-12
/4. 4/
X=-3
I'll use multiples of 2 and 4 as an example:
Multiples of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8...
Multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16...
The least common multiple in this case is 4. The LCM is always ≥ the largest starting number, which is 4 for this example. Therefore, the statement is true.

It seems like you just broke your keyboard when making this
E = some event
C = complement of event E
Since the events are complementary, this means P(E)+P(C) = 1
We know that P(E) = 3*P(C) since "an event is three times as likely as its complement"
So we can replace P(E) with 3*P(C) and then isolate P(C)
P(E) + P(C) = 1
3*P(C) + P(C) = 1
4*P(C) = 1
P(C) = 1/4
The probability of the complementary event is 1/4
So the probability of the original event is 3/4 (three times 1/4)
Answer: 3/4
note: in decimal form, 3/4 = 0.75
