Answer:

Nate made a mistake. He should have got 24 as Least common factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number are 8 and 12.

To find the GCF or LCF we have to list multiples.

For LCF

List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
Find the smallest number that is on all of the lists.
This number is the LCM.

For GCF

List the multiples of each number until at least one of the multiples appears on all lists.
Find the Biggest number that is on all of the lists.
This number is the GCF

The least common multiple of 8 and 12 is 24.

The Greatest common multiply of 8 and 12 is 4.

Hence, Nate is wrong. Nate should have found 24.

Scientists want to know the total trout population in a part of Lake Michigan. They tagged and released 200 trouts back into the

blondinia [14]

The estimate would be 1200.

We will set up a proportion for this. 10 out of 60 of the sample were tagged, so that is the first ratio. The 200 that were tagged would be in the numerator of the second ratio (10 was the portion tagged, and 200 is the portion tagged, so they both go on top). We do not know the total number so we use a variable:

10/60 = x/200

Cross multiply:

10*x = 60*200
10x = 12000

Divide both sides by 10:
10x/10 = 12000/10
x = 1200

the length of a rectangle is 4 more than 3 times the width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 18.4cm, what is the area of the

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A = 10.27cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent the width as x,

therefore since the length is 4 more than 3 times the width, it can be represent as 3x + 4, Perimeter = 18.4cm

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

$18.4= 2(3x+4+x)\\18.4= 6x+8+2x\\18.4-8=6x+2x\\10.4=8x\\x=\frac{10.4}{8}\\x=1.3$
