Hi there!

The greatest common factor of 40 and 24 is 8.
8 goes into 40 5 times:
8 goes into 24 3 times.
We can rewrite this expression for distribution using the amount of times 8 goes into both numbers:
8(5 + 3)
Using this, we get:
8(5) + 8(3) = 40 + 24.
54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term.
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
<h3>x less than or equal to 5</h3>

A.$3,600
Step-by-step explanation:
24,000*15% = 3600
or
24,000*0.15 = 3600
