-144= -1×2a×3b
144=2a×3b
144= 6ab
24= ab
a,b could b any two factors that have a product of 24
For example a,b could = 6,4 or 8,3 or 24,1
Answer:
This question is tricky because it could have multiple answers: for example is a,b= 6,4 then a+b= 10, but if a,b=24+1=25. So, the answer is that the sum of a+b varies depending on which 2 factors of 24 a and b are equal to. Does this make sense?

Answer:
9 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of what John has already walked and the number more he must walk will be equal to the number he has to walk to get to school.
12 + more = 5 + 9 + 7
more = 9 + 5 + 7 - 12 . . . . . subtract 12 from both sides
more = 9
John must walk 9 blocks more.
_____
We recognize that 5+7 = 12, so that last part of the sum totals zero.
3 buckets covers 90m x 80cm = 3 buckets for 90x0.8 = 3 for 72
x buckets covers 200m x 120cm = x buckets for 200x1.2 = x for 240
3/72 = x/240
720 = 72x
x =10 buckets of paint to cover 200mx120cm fence
