Arturo has a log that is 4 yards long. he cuts the log into pieces that are 1/3 yard long . how many pieces will Arturo have?

1 answer:

8 0

Arturo will have 12 pieces. For this problem, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. To do that, you flip 1/3 over to 3/1 and multiply that by 4. 3/1 times 4 equals 12. Remember that 4 as a fraction is 4 over 1. So you would multiply 4 by the numerator (3) because 4 is the numerator in 4/1.

15c² - 5c. Factorise completely

KATRIN_1 [288]

Looking at the problem, what we must do to complete this question is to completely factor the expression that was provided. The expression that was provided is $15c^2 - 5c$ .

The first step that we must do is to take a look at the expression and see what the two pieces of the expression have in common. We can see that both $15c^2$ and $-5c$ have the number 5 and the variable c associated with them so we can factor out those two.
