The GCF of 72 and 36 is: 36
List out the factors of each number (72 and 36), and find the common factors between the two numbers.
Factors of 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Factors of 72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Looking at the factors above, the common ones are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. But... considering we are looking for the "greatest" common factor, our highest number out of the listed ones is 36, making it the greatest common factor of 72 and 36.
Answer:
i belive 11 and 1 sorry if it is not right
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
n + -16 = m
Reorder the terms:
-16 + n = m
Solving
-16 + n = m
Solving for variable 'n'.
Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '16' to each side of the equation.
-16 + 16 + n = 16 + m
Combine like terms: -16 + 16 = 0
0 + n = 16 + m
n = 16 + m
Simplifying
n = 16 + m
Answer:
500 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
300 votes is 60%.
100%-60% is 40%
so 40% voted for the other person.
Work backwards:
x * 0.6=300
0.6x=300
x=300/0.6 which is 500.
500*0.4 is 200.
300+200 is 500.
Hope this helps :) I am terribly sorry if it is wrong or not using the number line.
As a fraction it would be 388888/100000.
