Answer 1

Answer:

• 9(4 +3)
• 5(9 +5)
• 8(2+9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems like these are aided immensely by your knowledge of multiplication tables.

1) 36 = 1·36 = 2·18 = 3·12 = 4·9 = 6·6

  27 = 1·27 = 3·9

The greatest common factor is 9, so the sum can be written as 9(4+3).

__

2) 45 = 1·45 = 3·15 = 5·9

  25 = 1·25 = 5·5

The greatest common factor is 5, so the sum can be written as 5(9+5).

__

3) 16 = 1·16 = 2·8 = 4·4

  72 = 1·72 = 2·36 = 3·24 = 4·18 = 6·12 = 8·9

The greatest common factor is 8, so the sum can be written as 8(2+9).
