What is the gcf of 3/7 and 4/9?

Mathematics
1 answer:
LiRa [457]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  1/63

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to do this.

<h3>1) </h3>

Look for the GCF of the numerators when a common denominator is used.

  GCF(3/7, 4/9) = GCF(27/63, 28/63) = (1/63)·GCF(27, 28)

  GCF(3/7, 4/9) = 1/63

__

<h3>2) </h3>

Use Euclid's algorithm. If the remainder from division of the larger by the smaller is zero, then the smaller is the GCF; otherwise, the remainder replaces the larger, and the algorithm repeats.

  (4/9)/(3/7) = 1 remainder 1/63*

  (3/7)/(1/63) = 27 remainder 0

The GCF is 1/63.

__

* The quotient is 28/27 = 1 +1/27 = 1 +(1/27)(3/7)/(3/7) = 1 +(1/63)/(3/7) or 1 with a remainder of 1/63.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

3/7 = (1/63) × 27

4/9 = (1/63) × 28

A clock tower has a circular clock face with an area of 144pi square feet. What is the diameter of the clock face? Teacher wants
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

d = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by A = π * r²

We are told the area of the clock is 144π.

Let's clear the formula for the radius:

r² = A / π

r² = 144π / π

r² = 144

r = √144

r = 12

The diameter is two times the radius, d = 2r = 2*12 = 24.

Complete the equation of the line through (-9,-9) and (-6,0)
Rudik [331]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis.

According to the data of the statement we have the following points:

(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 9, -9)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 6,0)

We found the slope:

m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0 - (- 9)} {- 6 - (- 9)} = \frac { 9} {- 6 + 9} = \frac {9} {3} = 3

Thus, the equation is of the form:

y = 3x + b

We substitute one of the points and find b:

0 = 3 (-6) + b\\0 = -18 + b\\b = 18

Finally, the equation is:

y = 3x + 18

Answer:

y = 3x + 18
