The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 40mph \times 6h \)
240 miles

You have 6 out of the total of 150 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{6}{150} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{6 \times 100}{150} \) = \( \frac{600}{150} \) = 4% chance to win the raffle.

The distributive property for division helps in solving expressions like \({b + c \over a}\). It specifies that the result of dividing a fraction with multiple terms in the numerator and one term in the denominator can be obtained by dividing each term individually and then totaling the results: \({b + c \over a} = {b \over a} + {c \over a}\). For example, \({a^3 + 6a^2 \over a^2} = {a^3 \over a^2} + {6a^2 \over a^2} = a + 6\).

A number in scientific notation has the format 0.000 x 10^exponent. To convert to scientific notation, move the decimal point to the right or the left until the number is a decimal between 1 and 10. The exponent of the 10 is the number of places you moved the decimal point and is positive if you moved the decimal point to the left and negative if you moved it to the right:

0.0006208 in scientific notation is 6.208 x 10^-4
