Answer:
284.625
Step-by-step explanation:
Arrange the numbers highest to lowest.
Find the middle value in the arrangement.
Given:
3 kids
72 is the product of their ages.
There is a youngest child.
This means that all three are of different ages. We need to factor 72 into 3 integers.
Let us use prime factorization:
72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 = 9
9 ÷ 3 = 3
Prime factors are: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 OR 2³ x 3²
3 ages.
eldest = 3³ = 9
middle = 2² = 4
youngest = 2¹ = 2
2 x 4 = 8
8 x 9 = 72
Answer:
6in
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the pythagerous thereom,
10^2 = 8^2 + b^2
b^2 = 10^2-8^2
b^2 = 100-64
b^2 = 36
b = 6
