Lola measures three for a shirt she is making. one button is 1/8 inch, one is 3/8 inch, and one is 1/4 inch. which button is smallest?
which is greatest?

 The smallest button is first button of size

and the greatest button is the second button of size

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of first button is given by

Length of second button is given by

Length of third button is given by

Now, make the denominator :

L.C.M. of 8,8, and 4 is 8

So, Length of third button is given by

So, arrangement will be

Hence, The smallest button is first button of size

and the greatest button is the second button of size

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
