Terrell ran 1,000 meters more than Victor. That's the answer because if you know 1 kilometer = 1,000 meters than do 3 kilometers times 1 kilometer = 3,000 meters. Than do 4,000 meters -3,000 meters to get 1,000 meters. so the answer is Terrell ran 1,000 meters more than Victor.
Find all the prime factors of the three numbers. pick up the common factors, ONCE, then pick up the non-common factors one by one, multiply the factors, the product is the least common factor.
example: the least common multiple of 6, 8, and 15
6=2*3
8=2*2*2
15=3*5
Note: do not write 8 into 4*2, because 4 is not a prime number. you have to break the number down to prime factors only.
Notice that 6 and 8 have a common factor 2, so pick up the 2;
6 and 15 have a common factor of 3, so pick up the 3.
those are the only two shared factors, so 2×3
now pick up whatever is not shared:
the two 2s for 8 and the 5 for 15 is not shared, add 2, 2, and 5 to the multiplication: 2×3×2×2×5=120
120 is the least common multiples of 6,8, and 15
this is basically how it is done. I believe you can explain better in your own words.
Jake:
Mon- 4 boxes
End of the week- 3x the boxes on Mon
3 x 4 = 12
Sally:
Mon- 2 boxes
End of the week- 4x the boxes on Mon
4 x 2 = 8
12 + 8 = 20 boxes total
Answer:
Yes, x and y have a proportional relationship.
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportional relationship means that, when comparing two quanities, that they are both changing at a constant (same) amount. When looking at a table to compare quantities, you can see that the pounds of tomatoes 'x' is increasing by one (1) each time. If you look at the amount spent in dollars 'y', you can see that for each pound (x), the cost is increasing by $4. So, since for every pound of tomatoes that is purchased increases by $4, then their relationship is proportional.
