For simple integer factors as this one has, you want to find two values for the quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c.   Let the two values be j and k.  These two values must satisfy two conditions.

jk=ac=10 and j+k=b=11, so j and k must be 1 and 10.

Now replace bx with jx and kx...

2x^2+x+10x+5  now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms.

x(2x+1)+5(2x+1)

(x+5)(2x+1)

If you want to convert 232323 to a fraction will you multiply by 10or 100​
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

it would actually be the opposite because if u multiply ur making the number higher, it can be a fraction but it would be 23/1 and thats a whole number u would need to divide by 100 and 100 bc if 10 u get 2 3/10 and if u divide by 100 u get 23/100 either way u get a fraction but if u divide by 10 u get a mixed fraction. If u just want a fraction u would have to divide from 100

Step-by-step explanation:

the same is for dividing decimals
