You have to do 7,800 divide by 12 and you get D) 650.
Garden one and two are both unknown, so I am choosing to call garden 2 X and then label garden 1 with comparisons to X.
It is tempting to list:
Garden Two = X
Garden One = X + 9
BUT there is an easier way. We are told that when 3 bushes are taken from garden 2 (x-3) and put in garden 1 (x + 12) then garden one has 1.5 times more than garden two.
Set it up like this:
1.5 ( x - 3) = x + 12 (because 1.5 times garden 2 will give us garden 1)
1.5x - 4.5 = x + 12 (Distribute)
.5x = 16.5 (Use subtraction to move variables to the right and other numb left)
x = 33 for Garden 2
33 + 9 for Garden 1 = 42
Answer:
The first expression can be rewritten as
35 {b}^{2} = 5 \times 7 \times {b}^{2}35b
2
=5×7×b
2
The second expression is rewritten as
15 {b}^{3} = 3 \times 5 {b}^{3}15b
3
=3×5b
3
The third expression is
5b = 5 \times b5b=5×b
The greatest common factor is the product of the least powers of the common factors.
