<h3>Answer:  126</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

Let x and y be the two numbers.

We're given x = 162 and the variable y is unknown.

We're also given LCM = 1134 and HCF = 18

So,

LCM = (x*y)/HCF

1134 = 162*y/18

1134 = (162/18)y

1134 = 9y

9y = 1134

y = 1134/9

y = 126

The other number is 126

---------------------

Notice that

  • 162 = 18*9
  • 126 = 18*7

showing that 18 is the highest common factor (HCF) of the numbers 162 and 126. This partially confirms the answer.

Now let,

  • A = multiples of 162
  • B = multiples of 126

So,

  • A = 162, 324, 486, 648, 810, 972, 1134, 1296, ...
  • B = 126, 252, 378, 504, 630, 756, 882, 1008, 1134, 1260, ...

We see that 1134 is in each list of multiples and the smallest such common item. So the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 162 and 126 is 1134. This helps fully confirm the answer.

the length of a rectangle is 2 in more than it's w i d t h the area of a rectangle is equal to 1 inch less than three times a pe
Marizza181 [45]
If we let x and y represent length and width, respectively, then we can write equations according to the problem statement.
.. x = y +2
.. xy = 3(2(x +y)) -1

This can be solved a variety of ways. I find a graphing calculator provides an easy solution: (x, y) = (13, 11).

The length of the rectangle is 13 inches.
The width of the rectangle is 11 inches.

______
Just so you're aware, the problem statement is nonsensical. You cannot compare perimeter (inches) to area (square inches). You can compare their numerical values, but the units are different, so there is no direct comparison.

it is 3,452 miles round trip to craig's aunt's house.if he travels to her house 3 times this year, how many miles did he travel
sveta [45]
(3,452 * 2) = round trip = 6,904.

6,904 * 3 = total distance = 20,712.

Therefore, the final answer is 20,712 miles.
