What is the least common multiple (lcm)of 2,3, and 6

Mathematics
1 answer:
laiz [17]2 years ago

<h3>Answer:  6</h3>

Explanation:

List list the multiples of each value

  • multiples of 2 = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ...}
  • multiples of 3 = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...}
  • multiples of 6 = {6, 12, 18, 24, ...}

In each list, we see 6 show up. This is the smallest multiple that is in common; therefore, the LCM is 6

Side note: The LCM is useful to help add and subtract fractions.

Which equation does not represent a direct variation?
tatuchka [14]
Okay I think there has been a transcription issue here because it appears to me there are two answers. However I can spot where some brackets might be missing, bear with me on that.

A direct variation, a phrase I haven't heard before, sounds a lot like a direct proportion, something I am familiar with. A direct proportion satisfies two criteria:

The gradient of the function is constant s the independent variable (x) varies

The graph passes through the origin. That is to say when x = 0, y = 0.

Looking at these graphs, two can immediately be ruled out. Clearly A and D pass through the origin, and the gradient is constant because they are linear functions, so they are direct variations.

This leaves B and C. The graph of 1/x does not have a constant gradient, so any stretch of this graph (to y = k/x for some constant k) will similarly not be direct variation. Indeed there is a special name for this function, inverse proportion/variation. It appears both B and C are inverse proportion, however if I interpret B as y = (2/5)x instead, it is actually linear.

This leaves C as the odd one out.

I hope this helps you :)

Can someone help me solve question 2 and 3?
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Question 2 = 15 drinks

Question 3 = 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2:

For every drink, there are three sizes

Ratio = 1:3

There are 5 flavors

Multiply each side by 5

5:15

15 drinks

Question 3:

5 red, 6 yellow, 8 blue, 3 orange, 2 purple

Possible outcomes = 5 + 6 + 8 + 3 + 2 = 24 possible outcomes

Favourable outcomes = 6 + 8 = 14 favourable outcomes

Fraction = 14/24 = 7/12

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

In the accompanying diagram, parallelogram ABCD has
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The area of the paralellogram is 24 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometrically speaking, the area of the parallelogram has an equation equivalent to the area formula for a rectangle, that is:

A = b\cdot h (1)

Where:

A - Area.

b - Base.

h - Height.

The base and height of the parallelogram are, respectively:

Base

b = 8-2

b = 6

Height

h = 5-1

h = 4

Then, the area of the parallelogram is:

A = (6)\cdot (4)

A = 24

The area of the paralellogram is 24 square units.
