Factor 3/4 out of 3/4z + 6

Alenkasestr [34]

ANSWER

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )$

EXPLANATION

We want to factor
$\frac{3}{4}$
out of

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6$

The first term is already having a factor of
$\frac{3}{4}$
The constant term which is the second term is not having a factor of
$\frac{3}{4}$
so we need to use a trick of multiplying and dividing by the same factor to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} z + \frac{3}{4} \times \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} }$

We can now factor
$\frac{3}{4}$
out of the right hand side to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + \frac{6}{ \frac{3}{4} } )$
Let us rewrite the right most fraction using the normal division symbol.

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \div \frac{3}{4} )$

We simplify to obtain,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 6 \times \frac{4}{3} )$

This further gives us,

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 2 \times 4 )$

$\frac{3}{4} z + 6 = \frac{3}{4} (z + 8 )$

Answer:

The series is 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the arithmetic series

- In the arithmetic series there is a constant difference between

each two consecutive numbers

- Ex:

# 2 , 5 , 8 , 11 , ………………………. (constant difference is 3)

# 5 , 10 , 15 , 20 , ………………………… (constant difference is 5)

# 12 , 10 , 8 , 6 , …………………………… (constant difference is -2)

* General term (nth term) of an Arithmetic series:

- If the first term is a and the common diffidence is d, then

U1 = a , U2 = a + d , U3 = a + 2d , U4 = a + 3d , U5 = a + 4d

- So the nth term is Un = a + (n – 1)d, where n is the position of the

number in the series

* Lets solve the problem

- Jeff wants to increase the number of miles he runs each day

∴ He will add the initial value by constant number each day

- He plans on increasing the number of miles he runs a day by 1

∴ The constant value is 1 mile

- On the first day of training, Jeff runs 5 miles

∴ The first value is 5 miles

∴ The series is arithmetic

∵ a = 5 , d = 1

- He do that for the remainder of the week

∵ The week has 7 days

∴ The series has 7 terms

∵ The rule of the series is Un = a + (n - 1)d

∵ a = 5 and d = 1

∴ Un = 5 + (n - 1)(1)

∴ Un = 5 + n - 1

∴ Un = 4 + n ⇒ n is the position of the number

- Substitute n from 1 to 7 to find the series

∴ The series is 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11

What's the lcm for 18, 27, 12? I got 648. Am not sure if it is correct. Can you please explain if it is correct or not?

erik [133]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Put these numbers into their prime factors.

18: 2 * 3 * 3

27: 3 * 3 * 3

12: 2 * 2 * 3

The LCM must have

two 2s

Three 3s

That's it

2*2 * 3 * 3 * 3

LCM = 108

648 might be a multiple of the three, but it's not the smallest one.

108 = 27 * 4

108 = 18 * 6

108 = 12 * 9
