Common questions

The highest common factor (HCF) is the largest positive integer that divides each of the numbers without a remainder. For 8, 12, and 16, the common factors are 1, 2, and 4. The greatest of these is 4, which is the HCF .

To solve for x in the equation 5x + 3 = 18, subtract 3 from both sides to get 5x = 15. Then, divide both sides by 5 to find x = 3 .

The profit is determined by subtracting the cost price from the selling price. In this instance, profit equals 150 - 120 = 30 .

To calculate the percentage score, divide the obtained score by the total score and multiply by 100. For 45 out of 60: (45/60) × 100 = 75% .

To solve the equation x + 4 = 10, subtract 4 from both sides to isolate x, resulting in x = 10 - 4, so x = 6 .

To calculate the savings, subtract the expenditure from the total earnings. Therefore, if earnings are 10,000 and spending is 7,000, the savings would be 10,000 - 7,000 = 3,000 .

To find a common multiple of 3 and 6, identify multiples of each number and find the smallest common one. Multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, etc., and for 6 they are 6, 12, 18, etc. The smallest common multiple is 6, followed by 12, 18, etc. .

To simplify the fraction 2x/3 + x/3, combine the fractions by adding the numerators while keeping the common denominator: (2x + x) / 3 = 3x/3. Simplifying this gives x .

The least common multiple (LCM) of two integers is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both numbers. For example, 4 and 5 have no common factors other than 1, so the LCM is the product of these numbers: 4 × 5 = 20 .

To determine the factors of 18, identify all numbers that divide 18 evenly. These are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18. These numbers multiply in pairs to equal 18, such as 1×18, 2×9, and 3×6 .
