Roger Williams was banished from Plymouth after being convicted of sedition and heresy. He had been a Puritan. Puritans were called "Separatists."

Rhode Island was started as a place for religious freedom and for religious dissenters. Roger Williams did not believe that the Plymouth church was sufficiently separated from the Church of England; so you could say that he became is dissenter, but he actually was banished for his beliefs. Anne Hutchinson was also tried, excommunicated and banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony for her beliefs. She also came to Rhode Island.

A jar contains a large number of pennies. The pennies can be divided into equal shares among 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 children with n

8090 [49]

Answer:

The least number of pennies the jar could contain is 840.

Explanation:

The least number of pennies the jar could contain refers to the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.

The least common multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers refers to the smallest number that is a multiple of all the numbers (except 0).

The LCM for 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 can be obtained using the LCM function in Excel by inputting =LCM(3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) in any cell in an excel sheet (as done in the attached excel file).

From the attached excel file, we have:

LCM of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 = 840

Therefore, the least number of pennies the jar could contain is 840.
