Fermat's little theorem states that

≡a mod p
If we divide both sides by a, then

≡1 mod p
=>

≡1 mod 17

≡1 mod 17
Rewrite

mod 17 as

mod 17
and apply Fermat's little theorem

mod 17
=>

mod 17
So we conclude that

≡1 mod 17
The equation we can use is
3 + 1/4c = 9
To find the total number of pieces, we would just solve the equation.
3 + 1/4c = 9
3 - 3 +1/4c = 9 - 3
1/4c = 6
inverse of division is multiputcation
4/1 *1/4c = 6*4
c = 24
There were 24 pieces of cake in total.
Answer:
1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
I find these easiest to work by considering the initial difference in distance and the speed at with that gap is closing.
__
The gap is 15 miles, the distance the first ship is from harbor when the second ship starts.
The rate of closure is the difference in the speeds of the two ships:
60 mph -45 mph = 15 mph
Then the closure time is ...
time = distance/speed
time = (15 mi)/(15 mi/h) = 1 h
It will take the second ship 1 hour to catch up to the first ship.
Answer:
it's 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 8x3=24 and you multiply 6×8=48
The answer that is correct is 20 so there you go
