11. Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).
48 = 2 · 2 · 2 ·2 · 3
60 = 2 · 2 · 3 · 5
96 = 2 · 2 · 2 ·2 · 2 · 3
GCF = 2 · 2 · 2 · 2 = 12
(2/15) x 12 = (X/12) x 12
24/15 =X
1 =X
Step-by-step explanation:
h1=170 cm→ 170 cm :100 =1.7 m
t1=1.5 m
t2=3⋅ t1
=3⋅ 1.5=4.5 m
h=3⋅ h1=3⋅ 1.7=5.1 m
h2/h1 =t2/t1
h2/1.7 = 4.5/1.5
h2/1.7 = 3 h2 = 3x 1.7 = 5.1 meter
16. Convert meters to kilometers:
1,000n = 20
n = 0.02 km
Convert seconds to hours: 3,600t = 1
t = 1/3,600 hour
20/s = 0.02 km : 1/3,600 hour = 2/100 : 1/3,600 = 2/100 x 3,600 = 72 kilometers per hour
