The answer should be Two and Three ...
A.)The equation is 24 + 8=32. Twice of the amount of 24 is 6 times the amount of 8. 24 x 2= 48. 48/6=8.
B.) X +Y=32 and 2x=6y
The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.
The least common multiple of two numbers is the lowest value number that is a multiple of both the numbers. To find the least common multiple of 3 and 8, you first list their multiples:
Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24...
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56...
When you compare the two lists of multiples, you can see that the number 24 is the lowest number that is a multiple of both 3 and 8, so it is their LCM, or least common multiple.
