How is a greater number a factor of a smaller number?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eduardwww [97]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

It depends on the definition of "factor" that you use.

One dictionary defines "factor" to be ...

  "a number or quantity that when multiplied with another produces a given number or expression"

In that sense, 7 can be a factor of 3, because 7 × (3/7) = 3.

___

Often we use the term "factor" when we mean "integer divisor", or "positive integer divisor". Using this last definition, the only factors of 3 are 1 and 3.

Other times, we use the term "factor" to mean "prime factor." By this definition, the only factor of 3 is 3 itself.

Jasmine bought a pennant (triangle) of the favorite baseball team. If the base is 16 inches and height is 24 inches, how much ar
KATRIN_1 [288]
D. 192in^2

This would be a simple area problem with a triangle. REMEMBER THIS EQUATION: a=bh*1/2 (b for base and h for height, these are multiplied together then that answer is halved out.)

So we just need to plug in our values into the equation, so the equation would look like a= (16)*(24)*1/2. 16 times 24 would then give you 384, you could either divide by 2 or multiply by 0.5 to get the next answer, as long as your HALVING the answer.

So we have our bh value so now we can multiply by 1/2 which will give us 384*1/2 which leaves us with 192.

I have also attached a photo of doing a longer(ish) way than this, that also proves that this equation works. Either one will provide you an answer.
