Clearly, |S| = 50.

Count the multiples of 2 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/2⌋ = ⌊25⌋ = 25

(where ⌊x⌋ denotes the "floor of x", or the largest integer that is smaller than or equal to x; in other words, round <u>down</u> to the nearest integer)

Count the multiples of 3 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/3⌋ ≈ ⌊16.667⌋ = 16

Since LCM(2, 3) = 6, the sets of multiples of 2 and multiples of 3 have some overlap. Count the multiples of 6 between 1 and 50:

⌊50/6⌋ ≈ ⌊8.333⌋ = 8

Then by the inclusion/exclusion principle, we remove from S

25 + 16 - 8 = 33

elements, so that the new set S contains 50 - 33 = 17 elements.

Answer:

If it is \sqrt{96} \sqrt{96} then it is the solution \sqrt{96} \sqrt{96}  = 96 because the square root of an expression multiplied by itself gives that expression.

Determine which package of laundry soap is the better buy: 65 ounces for 6.99 of 120 ounces of 12.99
Rzqust [24]
65 oz for 6.99....
6.99/65 = 0.107 

120 oz for 12.99..
12.99 / 120 = 0.108

well...if u rounded them, they would cost the same.....but actually, 65 oz is about 1/1000 cheaper....I would probably say they cost about the same because I dont think that 1/1000 difference is gonna make that much of a difference
