<h3>What is the greatest common factor of 15x³y² and 20x⁴y⁴? </h3>
<em>First we have to find the factors of 15x³y²</em>
<em>15x³y² = 3 * 5x³y² </em>
<em>Then we have to find the factors of 20x⁴y⁴</em>
<em>20x⁴y⁴ = 2²x¹y² * 5x³y²</em>
<em>Now we have to find the common factors to both numbers.</em>
<em>The common factors are </em><em>5x³y²</em>
Answer : GCF = (15x³y²,20x⁴y⁴) = 5x³y²

Answer:
a. 4 : 1
b. 2 students
c. 3 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
a. There were 12 students who got a C and 3 students who got As. The ratio is therefore:
12 : 3
Take it to the lowest form by dividing both sides by 3:
= 4 : 1
b. There were 4 students with a D grade and 8 with a B. The ratio is:
= 4 : 8
Taken to the lowest form that would be:
= 1 : 2
This means that for every student receiving a D, 2 students received an A.
c. 12 students received a C and 4 students received a D. That ratio is therefore:
= 12 : 4
Take to the lowest form by dividing both sides by 4:
= 3 : 1
