seven seven


What is 3 of 72?

3/8 = 3 divided by 8. That equals 0.375. Times this number (0.375) X 72 will equal 27. If you look at 3/8, this is less than 4/8 (or 1/2). So you can estimate that the number will be less than 1/2 of 72 which is 36.


You think of a number When you divide 72 by one more than your number you get the same answer as when you divide 54 by one less than my number. What is my number?

7 (x+1)/72 = (x-1)/54 x+1 = (72x-72)54 54x+54 = 72x-72 54x-72x = -72-54 -18x = -126 x = 7


72 is 36 percent of what number?

The Answer is 2520 No it is not--- to find the answer first convert the % to a decimal so 36% would look like 36. and THEN move the decimal over 2 spaces to the left (this is just a rule to remember) 36% is the same as .36 Then simply multiply by the number given so 36% of 72 would look like .36 * 72 and the answer is 25.92 A tip to remember is that 100% of a number is THE SAME NUMBER so 100% of 72 is 72 So if you are looking for 36% (which is less than 100%) your answer will obviously be less than the original number (in this case less than 72)--so obviously the poster who says the answer is 2520 is incorrect same for the opposite direction--if you are looking for 200% (greater than 100%) of a number your answer will be GREATER than the original number--so usually on multiple choice math tests you can eliminate 2 of the options right off the bat by simply applying that tip to them.

Is 72 a hcf of six and LCM of 252?

No. It can be neither. HCF is Highest Common Factor; a factor of a number is a number which divides into it with no remainder. Thus all factors are less than or equal to the number. 72 is greater than 6, therefore it cannot be a factor of 6, nor the Highest Common Factor of 6 and another number. LCM is Lowest Common Multiple; a multiple of a number is that number times some other number. Thus all multiples are greater than or equal to the number. 72 is less than 252, therefore it cannot be a multiple of 252, nor can it be the Lowest Common Multiple of 252 and another number. However, 6 is a factor of 72, thus 6 could be the HCF of 72 and another number, eg hcf(30, 72) = 6. But 252 is not a multiple of 72, so 252 could not be a LCM of 72 and some other number.
