If 4x = 8y = 12z, then what is a possible sum of positive integers x, y, and z?
If 4x = 8y = 12z, then what is a possible sum of positive integers x, y, and z?
Answer/Solution
180
Steps/Work
4x = 8y = 12z
x = 2y = 3z
3(2*3) = 2(3*1) = 3(1*2)
Addition = 18+6+6 = 30
Answer would be multiple of 30 which is 180
Answer :E
x = 2y = 3z
3(2*3) = 2(3*1) = 3(1*2)
Addition = 18+6+6 = 30
Answer would be multiple of 30 which is 180
Answer :E
