Answer:
24 + 40 = 8*(3 + 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The factors of:
24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 14
40: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
the prime factors:
24: 2 * 2 * 2 * 3
40: 2 * 2 * 2 * 5
The most shared factors are (2*2*2=8)
Factoring out 8 we have:
24 + 40 = 8*(3 + 5)
Answer: A=2, B=5, C=4
Step-by-step explanation:

So A=2, B=5, and C=4.
The number of cows is given by

So, after
years, the number of cows will be

We want this number to be twice as much as the original:

First of all, we can cancel 14 from both sides:

Finally, on the right hand side, we can use the exponent rule

to get

To solve this equation, we must impose that the two exponents are the same:

And clearly this is true if and only if
. So, it will take 5 years for the cow heard to double in number.
You can do the exact same steps to find the doubling time for the sheeps.
