3.5 cookies
Friend one: 3 Friend two: 3
One leftover cookie
Split in half give one to each and that makes 3.5
-4m + 8m = -16
4m = -16
m = -16 / 4
m = -4
The correct answer is C) -1.5(w-5).
Both numbers are divisible by 1.5. Since there is a negative in the first term, we will factor that out as well. This means we are dividing both terms by -1.5:
-1.5( )
Taking -1.5 out of -1.5w, we have w left:
-1.5(w )
Dividing 7.5 by -1.5, we have -5:
-1.5(w-5)
