What's an example of a situation in which it is better to find the difference in order to compare two quantities.

When you find the difference to compare two different quantities, it shows what is missing from one that is in the other. for example if you compare 4 and 8 by subtracting 4 from 8, then you know that 8 is 4 more than 4.

M = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Call (3,-4) one point
Call (-2,5) the second point.

m = (5- -4) / (-2 - 3)
m = 9/-5 = - 9 / 5

1 mile = 5,280 feet

Car + space = 13.5 + 3 = 16.5 feet

5,280 / 16.5 = 320

Two numbers have prime factorizations of 2 2 · 3 · 5 and 2 · 3 2 · 7.
ladessa [460]
I think for the question above, instead of 2 · 3^2 · 7 it is <span>2 · 3^2 · 5.
</span>
Two numbers have prime factorizations of 2^2 • 3 • 5 and 2 • 3^2 • 5 (note 2 squared & 3 squared).

Now, to choose the GCF, you choose, for each base factor in either number, the least exponent-ed one; so the GCF needs a factor 2, a factor 3, and a factor 5. Thus the GCF is 30 (their product). [i.e,2 squared is not a common factor]

<span>To create the LCM, you choose, for each base factor in either number, the greatest exponented one. Thus, LCM needs a factor 2 squared, 3 squared, and 5, giving LCM = 4(9)(5) = 180.</span><span />
