What is the least positive integer by which 24 should be divided so that the resulting integer is a perfect square?

If we actually guess and check by dividing by 1, then 2, then 3, then etc. we will get the answer. I tried and divided by 6, which is 4, which is a perfect square. Do not trust me completely on this, for I am not quite sure.

A farmer estimated that there were 25 gallons of water left in a tank. If this is an underestimate by 16%, how much water was ac

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The actual water in the tank is 29.76 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the farmer estimated amount of water is 25 gallons.

It is also given that he underestimate the water in tank by 16%.

Let the actual water in tank be x.

$(1-\frac{16}{100})x=25$

$(\frac{100-16}{100})x=25$

$84x=25\times 100$

$x=\frac{2500}{84}$

$x=29.7619$

$x\approx 29.76$

Therefore the actual water in the tank is 29.76 gallons.
