List of the first few prime numbers greater than 3:
5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29
Now find the combination that you can multiply and still have a 2 digit number:
5 x 7 = 35
5 x 11 = 55
5 x 13 = 65
5 x 17 = 85
5 x 19 = 95
5 x 23 = 115 ( 3 digit number, can't use).
7 x 5 = 35
7 x 11 = 77
7 x 13 = 91
7 x 19 = 133 ( 3 digit number, can't use).
The largest 2 digit number would be 5 x 19 = 95
The answer and workings are in the document below. Please open it up in a new window to see it in full.
The answer would be 10.19m. If you want to round it of to a less precise measurement it would be 10 m. That is rounding of the decimal value to the ones place. the rule of rounding of is form 6 t0 9 it would add 1 to the nearest place value next to it and 0 - 5 will not.
Answer:
35y - 67
Step-by-step explanation:
8(5y - 8) - (5y + 3)
Multiply the 8 with what is in the parentheses.
40y - 64 - 5y + 3
Subtract like terms.
35y - 67
You need to make a series of equations from what you are given first. I am going to use the first letter of each of the names to represent the length of that persons wire.
1/2s=2/5d
3c=s
s+d+c=6 ft
Okay. Now you can combine the first two equations knowing what s equals:
1/2(3c)=2/5d
d=15c/4
Now you have d=15c/4 and s=3c, so you can replace d and s in the third equation.
3c+15c/4+c=6
Then solve for c and plug it into the equation 3c=s to find the length of sarah's wire.
