<span>2/5 a b To get the number of factors, simply take each item from the expression and isolate it. Given the formatting limitations, I can't write the factor 2 over 5 and will instead represent it as 2/5. So the expression is 2/5ab where there's an implied multiplication between all the factors. Making that multiplication explicit, the equation becomes 2/5 * a * b And each possible factor also becomes quite explicit. Namely, the factors are 2/5 a b The reason that the 2 and 5 aren't considered factors is because technically, you could consider the 2 to be a factor, there isn't a corresponding factor of 1/5. So you have to consider 2/5 to be a single entity.</span>

What is the value of the expression

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

OA) 14

Step-by-step explanation:

2((7+1)-1)

2(8-1)

You could expand the brackets then simplify or just simplify now. It will be better to simplify now though but I will do both methods.

Simplifying first:

2(7) = 2 × 7 = 14

Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14

Expanding first then simplifying:

2(8-1) = 16-2 = 14

Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14

Answer:

$\frac{s}{2t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have exponents above a like term and they are being multiplied together, you add them.

For example:

$a^{x} *a^{y} = a^{x + y}$

So let's group like terms in the numerator:

$4r^{3} r^{-5} s^{-2} s^{-1}t$ We can add terms like in the example.

$4 r^{-2} s^{-3} t$

Let's rearrange the denominator.

$8r^{-2} s^{-4} t^{2}$

Now we have:

$\frac{4r^{-2} s^{-3}t}{8 r^{-2} s^{-4} t^{2} }$ Cancel like terms

4/8 = 1/2

$r^{-2} /r^{-2}$ = 1 So it cancels

$s^{-3} / s^{-4} = s^{-1}$ = s Since s is raised to the -1 it goes on top and becomes s.

$t / t^{2} = 1/t$

Now we combine everything back together:

$\frac{s}{2t}$

Darlene has 59 pages to type. so far she gas type 23 pages. what fraction of the job is finished

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

$\frac{23}{59}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction can be found be taking the current amount over the total amount:

$\frac{current}{total}=\frac{23}{59}$

Since Darlene has only typed 23 pages out of 59, her fraction is 23 over 59. Fractions must always be in simplest form, which means that both the numerator and denominator can no longer be divided by the same factor. Since the numbers 23 and 59 are both prime and have no other factors other than 1 and themselves, the fraction 23/59 is in simplest form.
