Answer:
6 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of the ratio values is 3×2 = 6. This means the two numbers will have a GCF of 12/6 = 2. So, the two numbers are ...
3×2 : 2×2 = 6 : 4
_____
I think of GCF and LCM problems in terms of a "diagram" that looks like this:
(a [ b ) c ]
That is, the two numbers can be written in a form such that one is (a·b), the other is [b·c], their greatest common factor is b, and their least common multiple is a·b·c.
The ratio of the two numbers would be a : c. The product ac differs from the LCM by a factor of b, the GCF. Of course, b = abc/(ac), which is how we got the above answer.
Answer:
24y+24
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply the number on the outside of the parenthesis with both the numbers on the inside of the parenthesis. The + stays the same.
4*6y=24y
4*6=24
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The smallest of the said odd numbers is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is 3 odd numbers that sums up to 87, the first thing to do is to divide 87 by 3
That is 87/3 = 29, which is an odd number
The nearest odd numbers to 29 are 27 and 31, and the total of all these three odd numbers is 87
That is 27+29+31 = 87, which are consecutive odd numbers.
The smallest odd number here is therefore 27
