<h3>HCF and LCM Questions</h3>

Responses:

6. (i) 27

(ii) 4 rose stalks, 3 lily stalks, and 2 orchid stalks

7. After 18 minutes

8. (i) May 7th

(ii) Every 12 days

<h3>How can the HCF and LCM be used to find the right responses?</h3>

6. The number of stalks of roses = 108

Number of stalks of lilies = 81

Number of stalks of orchids = 54

(i) The largest number of baskets that can be packed is given by the

Highest Common Factor, GCF , or HCF,  of  108, 81, and 54, which is

found as follows;

54 = 2 × 27

81 = 3 × 27

108 = 4 × 27

Therefore;

The HCF of 108, 81, and 54 is 27

Which gives;

  • The largest number of baskets that can be packed = <u>27</u>

(ii) From the above factors, we have;

  • Number of rose stalks per basket = <u>4</u>
  • Number of lilies per basket =<u> 3</u>
  • Number of orchids per basket =<u> 2</u>

7. Length of the circular path = 1 km. = 1,000 m.

Time Lixin takes to walk one round = 18 minutes = 1,080 seconds

Time Khairul takes to run one round = 360 seconds

Time Devi takes to cycle 2 rounds = 4 minutes

Therefore;

Time Devi takes to complete 1 round = \frac{4}{2} = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Required:

The time at which the three of them will next meet at the starting point

Solution:

The time at which they meet at the starting point is given as the lowest

common multiple, LCM of 1,080, 360, and 120, which is given as

follows.

1,080 = 360 × 3

1,080 = 120 × 9

1,080 = 1,080 × 1

Therefore;

The LCM of 1,080, 360, and 120 is 1,080

  • The time they will next meet at the starting point is after 1,080 seconds which is <u>18 minutes</u>

8. The days off of Nora = Every 4 days

Days off for Amirah = Every 6 days

Nora's last day of = 29 April

Amirah's last day off = 1 May

(i) The next time they will both have the same day off is given as follows;

6·x = 2 + 4·x

2·x = 2

x = 1

Therefore, the next time Amirah has a day off, which is 1 May + 6 days = 7 May, they will both have the same day off.

  • They will both have the same day off on May 7

(ii) The number of days that it will take for them to have the same day off is given by the HCF of 4 and 6, which is <u>every 12 days</u>.

Consider the figure below. Line FG is parallel to line JK.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

A. a = 10

B. m<FNT = 120°

C. m<KTU = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

A. (7a + 50)° and (14a - 20)° are corresponding angles. Therefore:

(7a + 50)° = (14a - 20)°

Use this equation to find the value of a

7a + 50 = 14a - 20

Combine like terms

7a - 14a = - 50 - 20

-7a = -70

Divide both sides by -7

-7a/-7 = -70/-7

a = 10

B. m<FNT = (14a - 20)° (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Plug in the value of a

m<FNT = 14(10) - 20

m<FNT = 140 - 20

m<FNT = 120°

C. m<KTU + (14a - 20)° = 180° (linear pair)

Plug in the value of a

m<KTU + 14(10) - 20 = 180

m<KTU + 120 = 180

m<KTU + 120 - 120 = 180 - 120

m<KTU = 60°
