Think about the problem in two pieces: (3 + .5) * 16. When you distribute, you get 3 * 16 = 48 and .5 * 16 = 8 (since .5 is one half). 48 + 8 = 56.
35 lb = 35 x 16 ounces = 560 ounces
35/56 + 16/56 = 51/56
35/56 = 5/8
56+35 = 91
56 out of 35 = 56 / 35 = 1.6Converting decimal to a percentage: 1.6 * 100 = 160%
35 x 56 = 1960
It is: 1.6 times 35 = 56
56 is not a multiple of 35
LCM(56, 35) = 280.
35/56 = 5/8
Expressed as a percentage, 56/160 x 100 = 35 percent. Therefore, 56 is 35 percent of 160.
The GCF of 35 and 56 is 7.The LCM of 35 and 56 is 280.
