The GCF is the smallest shared prime factor for each term.

The LCM is the smallest whole number that both numbers share as multiples.

For example, take #16.

Factors of 25: 1 , 5, 25

Factors of 75: 1 , 3, 5, 15, 25 ,75

The GCF that is shared would then be 25.

The smallest multiple that both share as multiples:

Multiples of 25: 25, 50, 75, etc.

Multiples of 75: 75, etc.

The LCM that is shared would then be 75.

16) 25 and 75

GCF: 25

LCM: 75

17) 35 and 5

GCF: 5

LCM: 35

18) 27 and 36

GCF: 9

LCM: 108

19) 21 and 56

GCF: 7

LCM: 168

20) 54 and 72

GCF: 18

LCM: 216

A family owns two businesses that made a combined profit of $$$10 million in the previous financial year, with business B making

Archy [21]

Answer:

The equation to find the profit made by business combined is $x+4x = 10$ .

Business A made $2 million profit and Business B made $8 million profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Profit made in previous financial year = $10 million

We need to write an equation to find the profit made by the business.

Solution:

Let the profit (in millions) made by business A be 'x'.

Let the profit (in millions) made by business B be 'y'.

Now given:

business B making 4 times as much profit as business A.

so we can say that;

$y =4x$

Now we know that;

Profit made in previous financial year is equal to sum of profit (in millions) made by business A and profit (in millions) made by business B.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+y =10\ million$

Substituting the value of y in above equation we get;

$x+4x = 10$

Hence The equation to find the profit made by business combined is $x+4x = 10$ .

On Solving above equation we get;

$5x =10\\\\x =\frac{10}{5} = \$2 \ million$

profit (in millions) made by business A = $\$2 \ million$

profit (in millions) made by business B = $4x =4\times 2 =\$8 \ million$

Hence Business A made $2 million profit and Business B made $8 million profit.

Solve equations: 3|x+4|=6 | = absolute value

Anestetic [448]

Absolute values are a way of finding a distant from zero, which means there will be 2 answers; one will be positive, and the other will be negative.

|3x - 4| = 5and |3x - 4 = a^5 Because you need 2 answers, you have to make 5 positive and negative.

Another way to write this equation would be...

5=|3x-4|=—5

Now lets continue...

5=3x-4=—5

Add 4 to both sides...

9=3x=—1

Now divide by 3...

3=x= -1/3

So the solution is...

X={-1/3 3}

4 3/4 X 4 1/7 what is it please help

Y_Kistochka [10]

first you turn the fractions into inproper fractions by multiplying the whole number by the denomonator and adding the numerator

4×4=16

16+3=19

19/4

4×7=28

28+1=29

29/7

keep the denomonators the same. now that you've converted them into inproper fractions you can multiply them

19/4 × 29/7=551/28

there is no way to simplify this answer so this is the final answer
