No guarantee that there will enough hotdogs for the buns, we must find the common multiple between the usual number of hot dogs and buns in each package.

Since we're looking for the smallest common multiple between 8 and 10, we can use the method shown below to compute for the least common multiple. 

8 = 2³ 
10 = 2 x 5
LCM = 2³ x 5 = 40

To purchase 40 hot dogs and buns, you need to buy 5 packages of buns and 4 packages of hot dogs.

Answer:

Hotdog: 4 packages
Buns: 5 packages

Today, John ran 15 miles in 2 hours and 30 minutes. He wants to represent the relationship between the distance he ran, in miles
jeyben [28]

Answer:

d = 6t

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, lets change the 2 hours and 30 minutes to 2.5 hours, you could devide the time in minutes by 60 to get that number 2[hours]+(\frac{30}{60})[minutes to hours] = 2.5Hours.

Anyway, John ran 15 miles in 2.5 hours which means he ran (15÷2.5) in one hour which is equal to 6miles per hour. That means if you multiply the hours he ran by 6 you will get the miles he ran.

So the answer would be:

d = 6t

In triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC. (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively).
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6 dm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle DBE is similar to triangle ABC, so their side lengths are proportional.

DE/AC = DB/AB

The length of DB can be found from ...

DB +AD = AB

DB = AB -AD = (15 -10) dm = 5 dm

So, we can fill in the proportion:

DE/(18 dm) = (5 dm)/(15 dm)

DE = (18 dm)·(1/3) . . . . . . . . . . simplify, multiply by 18 dm

DE = 6 dm

a factory adds three red drops and two blue drops of coloring to white paint to make each pint of purple paint. the factory will
iogann1982 [59]
So there are 8 pints in a us gallon, 2 drops of blue to make a pint of purple (2x8x50=800) and then 3 drops of red to make purple (3x8x50=1200) I think maybe I've missed a step but (800+1200=2000) so 2000 drops of red and blue combined to make 50 gallons of purple paint.
