Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
You need the greatest common factor of 168 and 60.
168 = 2^3 * 3 * 7
60 = 2^2 * 3 * 5
For the GCF, you need common factors with the lower exponent.
Between 2^3 and 2^2, choose 2^2.
Then you have 3 as a common factor.
5 and seven are not common.
GCF = 2^2 * 3 = 12

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
n = 5
Discussion:
Let the original number be "n" Translating the problem statement to mathematical symbolism:
n + 4 = 19 - 2n => add 2n to both sides
n + 2n + 4 = 19 - 2n + 2n => combine like terms
3n + 4 = 19 => subtract 4 from both sides
3n = 19 -4 = 15 => divide both sides by 3
n = 15/3 =5
Check: Does 5 +4 = 19 - 2(5)? Does 9 = 9? Yes. so the value for n is confirmed correct.
Thank you,

Answer:
- adult: 325
- children's: 225
Step-by-step explanation:
It usually works well to let a variable represent the higher-value item in the mix. Here, we can let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the total revenue is ...
1.50a +1.00(550 -a) = 712.50
0.50a = 162.50 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 550 and collect terms
a = 325
c = 550 -325 = 225
325 adult and 225 children's tickets were sold.

Yes because 6/18=1/3 and 2/6=1/3. Then 6/18=2/6
