He shaded 1/3 of one rectangle and 1/4 of other rectangle. What is the least number of parts into which both rectangles could be divided?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:
Rectangle 1: 1/3 shaded

Rectangle 2: 1/4 shaded

First you have to look through each denominators multiples to find the lowest common denominator (LCD).

Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15

Multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20

As you can see, both numbers are multiples of 12.

Rectangle 1: 1/3 shaded= 4/12 shaded

Rectangle 2: 1/4 shaded= 3/12 shaded

I made equivalent fractions by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the same number.

The least number of parts which both rectangles can be divided is 12.

Hope this helped :)

72/100 in simplest form

Answers

the answer is 31/50 (just half both sides)

In fractional simplest form we would begin by dividing both by 2 (always start this way, it's easier).

72/2 = 36
100/2 = 50

Now, we have 36/50 which could also be divided by 2.

36/2 = 18
50/2 = 25

Now, we have 18/25. From here, you would look to see if either number can be simplified using a common factor. With these numbers, nothing could be further simplified, so it would stay this way. :)

Find the width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 90 and a length of 15.A.90
B.15
C.45
D.30
I really need help.

Answers

A rectangle has 2 sets of equal parallel lines. And we know one of the sides is 15.
So we know two of the sides have to be 15. Right?

So that means 15 x 2 = 30

So we know that two of the sides add up to equal 30.

The entire perimeter is 90. Well we've used 30 so lets see how much we have left to use.

90(the entire perimeter) - 30(the amount we know) = 60(what we have left)

So the last two sides of the rectangle equal 60, since there are two sides, let's divide the remaining perimeter by 2

60(both of the sides) / 2(the last 2 sides that we haven't found the length for yet) = 30

So now we know all of the sides.

Let's read the question again now.

"Find the 'WIDTH' of a rectangle with a perimeter of 90 and a 'LENGTH' of 15"

So it's 15 long(length), and 30 wide(width)

If this doesn't help, I can draw a picture and it mights make some more sense :)

Final answer:

The width of the rectangle is 30 units.

Explanation:

To find the width of a rectangle, we need to use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, which is 2(length + width). In this case, we are given the perimeter as 90 and the length as 15. Plugging these values into the formula, we get: 90 = 2(15 + width).

Now we can solve for the width. First, simplify the equation: 90 = 30 + 2(width).

Then, subtract 30 from both sides: 60 = 2(width). Divide both sides by 2 to isolate the width: width = 30.

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 30 units.
