If we start with 6 and 8, we can break 6 up into 2*3 and 8 into 2*2*2, thus getting a prime factorization of 2*2*2*2*3, or 2^4 *3.
If we begin with 4 and 12, 4 breaks into 2*2 and 12 into 2*2*3, so the prime factorization of 48 is still 2^4 *3.
The starting factors do not matter, since the answer comes out to be the same. There is exactly one correct answer- it doesn't matter how it's found.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
-34x+6=-28
-6 -6
-34x=-34
-34 -34
x=1
Subtract 6 from both sides. on the left the 6 will be canceled out and on the right -28-6= -34
Than you divide -34 on both sides on the left the -34 will be canceled and on the right -34 divided bt-34 is positive 1. So x equals 1.
Divide 4 and 5/8 by 5/8. you will get 7 and 2/5, or 7.4. since this you need whole pieces of wood, round down to 7.
final answer=7 pieces of wood
There are 32 nickels and 112 dimes. Hope this helps.
