Distance from tip of shadow to lamp post = 13 +9 feet = 22 ft
Height of lamp post = x
tan 50 = x /22 = 1.192
x = 22 * 1.192 =.26.2 ft. rounded = 26ft
I think you divide.. find the mean of all of the numbers?
This question is based on least common multiple method.
As given in the question,
Aunts are taking pictures in group of = 5
Uncles are taking pictures in group of = 10
So we have been asked what is the minimum number of aunts Sana have.
As we have been given that the number of aunts and uncles is equal so to find the minimum number of aunts we will apply the least common multiple method.
So we get LCM of 5,10 as 10
Hence there are minimum 10 aunts.
So 72 pencils and 24 calculators
so greates number of identical calculators
this means
what is the biggest number that we can divide 72 and 24 by and get a whole number
this is called the GCM or greatest common multipule
to find the GCM, you factor 72 and group the like ones
72=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 3
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3
so the common group is 2 times 2 times 2 times 3 or 24
so the greates number of packs is 24
so pencils
72 divided by 24=72/24=3
3 pencils per pack
24 divided by 24=24/24=1
1 calulator per pack
answer is 3 pencils and 1 calculator per pack
