The highest common factor (hcf) of 140 and x is 20

the lowest common multiple (lcm) of 140 and x is 420

find the value of x

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ,

HCF of 140 and x=20,

LCM of 140 and x =420.

Solution:

It is known that the product of two numbers is equal to the product of their HCF and LCM, i-e:

140*x= HCF*LCM

Putting in the values provided,

140*x=20*420

140*x=8400

x=8400/140

x=60

Hence the variable x is 60.

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.
