Aram says that the least common multiple of 4 and 6 is 24. which is true about aram's statement?

a. 24 is a common multiple, but not the least common multiple

b.24 is not a common multiple of 4 and 6.

c.24 is the least common multiple.

d.24 is also the greatest common factor.

a. 24 is a common multiple, but not the least common multiple

Step-by-step explanation:

To check which statement is true, we need to follow the steps below;

First, lets find the multiples of 4 and then multiples of 6

Multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28

Multiples of 6 =6, 12, 18, 24, 32

Common multiples of 4 and 6 are 12, 24

The least common multiples of 4 and 6 is 12

Therefore 24 is a common multiple of 4 and 6 but its not the least common multiple of 4 and 6 rather 12 is the least common multiple of 4 and 6.

Next lets find the factors of 4 and 6

Factors of 4 = 1, 2, 4

Factors of 6 = 1, 2, 3, 6.

Common factors of 4 and 6= 1, 2

Greatest common factor of 4 and 6 = 2

Therefore, 24 is also not the greatest common factors of 4 and 6 but rather 2 is the greatest common factor.

Therefore the only true statements of Aram is option a. 24 is a common multiple, but not the least common multiple

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
