PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE MEDAL! A fan has 5 equally spaced blades. What is the least number of degree's that you can rotate the fan onto itself? A- 120 degree's B- 60 degree's C- 90 degree's D- 72 degree's

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

How many degrees was this rotated? |dw:1402438671270:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like 60 degree's?

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

i think it is 60 degrees

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

am i right???

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

No

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

Since the blades are equally spaced, the question is the same as "How many degrees are between each blade?"

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

is it 72°?

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

for each i think it is 72°

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

@AndrewKaiser333 Why do you think it is 72°?

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

360°/5=72°

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

Yup, that's the right reasoning and answer.

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

just did the math the other one was a guess just woke up and you said it is equally spaced

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

just had coffee so am awake now and can think sorry for the first answer which was 60° it is actually 72°.

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

next time i will have my coffee before i do my math then i will be awake

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

yay i did it lol

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):

D- 72 degree's @js7474

OpenStudy (andrewkaiser333):
