Answer 1

Answer:

34  

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the greatest common factor of 26 and 8

Factors of 26 = 2 · 13     = 26

Factors of   8 = 2 · 2 · 2 =   8

The greatest common factor of 26 and 8 is 2.

2. Write the expression as the greatest common factor and a sum

(a) Divide the expression by the greatest common factor

$\dfrac{26 + 8}{2} = 13 + 4$

(b) Multiply the sum by 2

26 + 8 = 2(13 +4)

3. Simplify the expression

2(13 +4) = 2(17) = 34
