$2788*100000$

$278800000$

<h2>Answer:</h2>

278,800,000

Why learn this:

Order of operations is a basic rule of algebra. It tells us what to solve first when we have an equation with multiple functions, which is something that you will likely encounter throughout your math studies. The order is: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, then finally Addition and Subtraction. Remember that when you're solving within the parentheses, the Order of Operations applies!

What is the GCF of 28ab and 42b?<br> 6b<br> 14b<br> 4b<br> 7b<br> NEED ASAP

grigory [225]

Answer:

14b

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the greatest common factor of the two terms

The greatest common factor can be obtained by finding the expression that factor the given expression

We have this as;

14b(2a + 3)

So the greatest common factor is 14b

Multiply and give the answer in scientific notation: (2.3 x 10-3)(3 x 108) A) 6.9 x 105 B) 6.9 x 1011 C) 6.9 x 10-5 D) 6.9 x 102

Furkat [3]

Answer: A) is the right answer. $6.9\times10^{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given product : $2.3\times10^{-3}\times3\times10^8$

To multiply above expression, first we need to combine like terms and then we need to use the law of exponents.

$2.3\times3\times10^{-3}\times10^8\\=(2.3\times3)\times(10^{-3}\times10^8)\\=6.9\times10^{-3+8}......[\text{by law of exponents }a^n\cdot\ a^m=a^{m+n}]\\=6.9\times10^{5}$

Thus, the answer is $6.9\times10^{5}$ .

Three times the sum of a number and 17 is at least 22 translate

shutvik [7]

Hi there!
We are given a question that asks us to translate some given information into numerical format, or numbers. We can do that by first finding key words. Such words are sum and at least. Sum indicates addition, while at least indicates a greater than or equal to sign, or ≥. Now that we have found our key info, we can move on.
The question states that 3 times the sum of a number and 17. The 'sum of a number and 17' part can be represented by the expression x + 17, where x is some number. Next, three times means that we need to multiply 3 to the expression x + 17, giving us 3(x + 17). Finally, the question gives us that the whole expression 3(x + 17) is 'at least', or greater than or equal to, 22. Hence, we get the inequality 3(x + 17) ≥ 22, which is also our answer. Hope this has come of assistance to you and have a great day!

36= 12.5% because 25%+62.5%= 87.5%

So 100%-87.5%=12.5%

87.5%-12.5%= 75%

36+36=72=25%

72+72+72+72= 288 = 100%

So the total number of pages in the magazine is 288
