What is the least number of plums that can be shared equally among 6, 9 or 12 children? (a) 27 (b) 36 (c) 54 (d) 72

Step-by-step explanation: My answer would be 36.To figure this out,list all the multiples of 6,9,and 12.Once you do that you have to see which numbers occur in all three.Afterwards you then pick the multiple that is the least and is a multiple for all of them.

Hope this help

question 1: step-by-step explanation:

1/4 of 84 = 84÷4= 21

2 equivalent expressions to represent the area of a rectangle and the top is n-3 and the side is 2

area of the rectangle = length * width

given length = n - 3

width = 2

replace it in the area

so area of the rectangle = (n-3) *2

= 2(n-3)

one of the expression is 2(n-3)

to get another expression we distribute 2 inside the parenthesis

2(n-3) is 2n - 6

so another expression is 2n - 6

two equivalent expression are

2(n - 3)   , 2n - 6
