Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

We are assuming that all girls in the group bought the same number of items.

Therefore, we need to find the highest common factor of 72, 144 and 216.

HCF

72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

144 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

216 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3

The product of the emboldened numbers is the highest common factor.

That is:

2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 = 72

Therefore, the largest possible number of girls in the group is 72.

Adam sells medical magazine and books. the table shows price for both Magazine £8
kumpel [21]

Adam earned a total of £265.10 last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Adam earns a basic pay of £200 each week. He earns 10% of the magazine price for each sold  and 15% of the book price for each sold. Each magazine costs £8 and each book costs £15. He sells 42 magazines and 14 books.

Money earned for selling a magazine = 10% × £8 = 0.10 × £8 = £0.80,

Money earned for selling a book = 15% × £15 = 0.15 × £15 = £2.25,

Money earned for selling 42 magazines = 42 × £0.80 = £33.60,

Money earned for selling 14 books = 14 × £2.25 = £31.50,

Money earned for selling 42 magazines and 14 books = £33.60 + £31.50 =  £65.10.

Step 2; Now we have to calculate his last week's salary which is his weekly pay and his earnings from selling magazines and books. We found that he earned £31.50 from selling books and magazines. His weekly salary is £200.

Last week's salary =  £200 +  £65.10 = £265.10.

Find the arc length of AB. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Fantom [35]

The arc length of AB is 8 m (app.)

Explanation:

Given that the radius of the circle is 8 m.

The central angle is 60°

We need to determine the arc length of AB

The arc length of AB can be determined using the formula,

arc \ length=\frac{central \ angle}{360^{\circ}} \times circumference

Substituting central angle = 60° and circumference = 2πr in the above formula, we get,

arc \ length=\frac{60^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}} \times 2 \pi(8)

Simplifying the terms, we get,

arc \ length=\frac{8 \pi }{3}

Dividing, we get,

arc \ length=8.37758041

arc \ length=8(app.)

Hence, the arc length is approximately equal to 8.

Therefore, the arc length of AB is 8 m
