Answer:
- Lena's Method: 280
- Jackson's Method: 280
Step-by-step explanation:
Lena's Method:
- 8 + 12 = 20
- Plug 20 in: 14(20)
- 14(20) = 14 × 20 = 280
Jackson's Method:
- 14 × 8 = 112
- 14 × 12 = 168
- Re-write the expression: 112 + 168
- 112 + 168 = 280
I hope this helps!
You need to subtract 25 by 18
77 unicorns, because yesterday the ratio was 6:5 and today it is 3:4. If you add the numbers for both ratios together, you get 11 and 7. Finding the LCM of these two gives 77 (because 7 and 11 are both prime).
You find the LCM of the sums because when you find values based on ratios, you divide value by the sum of the ratio.
e.g. I have 100 fruits. The ratio of apples to oranges is 2:3. How many apples are there?
To solve this you'd add 2 and 3 (5), divide 100 by 5 (20), multiply that by 2 (40) because that's the ratio of apples to oranges.
In this case, you do the reverse. So If I have 77 unicorns, then yesterday there were (77/11 = 7, 7*6= 42, 7*5= 35) 42 green unicorns and 35 yellow. The sum of 42 and 35 is 77. If you do this process with the other ratio you'll get similar results as well.
Answer:
<u>4 minutes</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
40=1 min
40=2 min
40=3 min
40=<u>4</u> min
40x4 or 40+40+40+40 is <u>160</u>
