You need school supplies. You go to the store and see that there are 6 different backpacks, 8 notebooks, 3 packets of pens, and 8 folders to choose from. You
decide to go to another store to see their selection. The second store had a third
of the backpacks, half the notebooks, and triple the number of pens. How many
folders would the new store need to have in order for there to be the same
number of combinations of items to choose from in the second store than in the
first store?

16 folders

Step-by-step explanation:

The first store has 1152 possible combinations. The second store has 72 combinations without the folders.

If we divide 1152 by 72, we have 16. Therefore the second store needs 16 folders to have the same number of combinations as the first store.

start with a line segment pq that we will copy. mark a point r that will be one endpoint of the new line segment. set the compasses' point on the point p of the line segment to be copied. adjust the compasses' width to the point q. the compasses' width is now equal to the length of the line segment pq.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
