Let's do the math. In the example a =2, b = 3, c = 5. If we are trying to see if the sum of these numbers has a common factor more than 1 do the math. 2 + 3 + 5 = 10. Ten has four factors which are 1, 2, 5, and 10. So the answer to your question is yes.
Answer: 0.875
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.6 tablespoons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s make a proportion
syrup/cupcakes=syrup/cupcakes
4 tablespoons are needed for 10 cupcakes and x tablespoons are needed for 4 cupcakes.
4/10=x/4
Now we have to solve for x. x is being divided by 4. To reverse this, multiply both sides by 4, because multiplication is the opposite of division.
4*4/10=x/4*4
The 4s on the right will cancel, so we are left with:
4/4*10=x
1.6=x
So, 1.6 tablespoons are needed for 4 cupcakes.
Answer choice C can not form a proportion with 8/18.
