Answer:

<em>When 60 beats are heard, Tom hits 15 snare drums, Sam hits 6 kettle drums, and Matt hits 5 bass drums.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The Least Common Multiple ( LCM )

The LCM of two integers a,b is the smallest positive integer that is evenly divisible by both a and b.

For example:

LCM(20,8)=40

LCM(35,18)=630

Since Tom, Sam, and Matt are counting drum beats at their own frequency, we must find the least common multiple of all their beats frequency.

Find the LCM of 4,10,12. Follow this procedure:

List prime factorization of all the numbers:

4 = 2*2

10 = 2*5

12 = 2*2*3

Multiply all the factors the greatest times they occur:

LCM=2*2*3*5=60

Thus, when 60 beats are heard, Tom hits 15 snare drums, Sam hits 6 kettle drums, and Matt hits 5 bass drums.

Bob has some 10 lb weights and some 3 lb weights. Together, all his weights add up to 50 lbs. If x represents the number of 3 lb
Romashka [77]
Total weight = 50 lb
x = number of 3-lb weights
y = number of 10-lb weights

weight of 3-lb weights = 3x
weight of 10-lb weights = 10y
total weight = 3x + 10y

equation
3x + 10y = 50

On Saturday, Craig rode his bike 5/8 of a mile. On Saturday, he rode his bike 1/2 of a mile. Craig added 5/8+1/2=6/10and plotted
VashaNatasha [74]
* Craig's answer is not reasonable because to add fractions the denominators must be the same.

** Total distance = 5/8 + 1/2 = 5/8 + 4/8 = 9/8 miles

*** Using the line number to prove the answer:
The line number that represents the problem is in the attached figure.
while the distance between 0 and 1 divided to 8 sections
to represent (5/8) count 5 sections from zero ⇒⇒⇒ point (a)
and to represent (1/2) it is the midpoint between 0 and 1 which mean it is 4 sections but it will be counted from point (a) so, adding 4 sections to point (a) the result will be the point (b)
So, counting from 0 to point (b) will give us 9 sections
and while one section represents (1/8)
So the total distance will be 9 * (1/8) = 9/8 which is agree with the result obtained before

Olive oil is a cooking Ingredient. The density of olive oil is 0.92 grams per cubic centimeter. An olive farmer wants to sell bo
sveticcg [70]

Answer: The volume of container that holds 460 grams of oil is 500 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density of olive oil is 0.92 grams/(centimetre )^3

An olive farmer wants to sell bottles that contain  460 grams of oil.

Therefore

Mass of oil  = 460 grams

As we know

\text {Density}= \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} \\\\\Rightarrow 0.92= \dfrac{460}{\text{Volume}} \\\\\Rightarrow \text{Volume}= \dfrac{460}{0.92} = 500

Hence, the volume of container that holds 460 grams of oil is 500 cm³.
