from hundreds chart,what % of the numbers are multiples of both 2 and 3
To find the percentage of numbers that are multiples of both 2 and 3 on a hundreds chart, we first need to understand what it means for a number to be a multiple of 2 and 3.
A multiple of a number is a number that can be evenly divided by that number. In this case, we are looking for numbers that are evenly divisible by both 2 and 3.
First, let's find the numbers that are multiples of 2 on the hundreds chart. Starting from 1, we can see that every second number is a multiple of 2: 2, 4, 6, 8, and so on. We notice that these numbers form a pattern. By counting in twos, we can identify all the multiples of 2 on the hundreds chart.
Next, let's find the numbers that are multiples of 3 on the hundreds chart. Starting from 1, every third number is a multiple of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, and so on. Similar to before, these numbers also follow a pattern. By counting in threes, we can find all the multiples of 3 on the chart.
To find the numbers that are multiples of both 2 and 3, we need to identify the common numbers in both the multiples of 2 and multiples of 3 lists. By inspecting the two lists, we can see that the multiples of both 2 and 3 are: 6, 12, 18, 24, and so on.
To calculate the percentage, we divide the number of common multiples by the total number of numbers on the hundreds chart and multiply by 100. In this case, the total numbers on a hundreds chart is 100.
So, there are 33% of the numbers that are multiples of both 2 and 3 on a hundreds chart.
