Sally purchased 24 pencils 1/8 of the pencils are blue 1/6 of the pencils are red how many pencils are either red or blue A. 17
B.14
C.7
D.4

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the common multiple of 6 and 8 is 24 which is the amount of pencils.

1/8 x 3 equals 24 (3 because 3 times 8 gives 24)

1/6 x 4 equals 24 (4 because 4 times 6 gives 24)

i hope this is what you were looking for.

see attached graph

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
