The factors of 7are -1 and 7 or 1 and -7, the factors of 14 are 1, 2, 7, and 14, or -1, -2, -7,-14. so the list of potential zeros are: 1/1, 1/2, 1/7, 1/14, 7/1,7/2, 7/7, 7/14, which can be simplified into 1, 1/2,1/7, 1/14, 7, 7/2
add the negative ones: -1, -1/2,-1/7, -1/14, -7, -7/2
I believe there are a total of 12 potential zeros

We have been given a table of overnight low temperature for a four-day period. We are supposed to give a possible temperature for Wednesday.
We are told that the low temperature on Wednesday was between the second and third highest temperature.
Let us place our given temperatures from least to greatest order.
Sunday (-11), Thursday (-8), Friday (7), Sunday (18)
We can see that second and third highest temperatures are -8 and 7 respectively.
Any number between -8 and 7 will be a possible temperature for Wednesday. 3 can be a possible temperature for Wednesday as 3 is between -8 and 7.
First off you need to convert the numbers into mixed numbers.
1 3/7 goes to 10/7
3 2/3 goes to 11/3
Then you multiply the numerators together:
10 * 11 = 110
Do the same for the denominators:
3 * 7 = 21
Then place it into a fraction and you make the fraction positive because the signs at the start are the same:
110/21
Then you can turn it into a proper fraction:
5 5/21
First divide $1,137.50 by 350 to figure out how much each book costs. Then divide $1,500 by 350 to see how much the school should add to the price of each agenda book to make the total profit. So the answer should be: (1137.50/350)+(1500/350)=minimum price
