I)
Every 8.th voter gets a button:

so a sequence of the voters who receive a button is:

8, 16, 24, 32, ....   that is  8*1, 8*2, 8*3, 8*4, .... in general: 8k for some integer k  

ii)

Every 10.th voter gets a sticker, so the voters who receive stickers are the :

10, 20, 30, 40, .... voters    that is 10*1, 10*2, 10*3, 10*4... in general 10t

for some integer t


iii) what we are looking for is the first number which is 8k and 10t at the same time.

8k=2*2*2k, 
10t=2*5t

Thus this number must be divisible by 2*2*2*5*{some positive integer}

the smallest number is when the positive integer is 1, thus the number is 

2*2*2*5=8*5=40


Answer: g. the 40th

Q # 4 anybody help me please
Marysya12 [62]

<u>Answer</u>

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5


<u>Explanation</u>

√5 = 2.236

-1 ⇒ this is less than 1.  

-5/3 = -1.666667    this is less than 1.  -5/3 < -1

0.7 > -1

√2 = 1.414        ⇒     √5 > √2

Arranging them from the least to the greatest;

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5
