Hi there!

The greatest common factor of 40 and 24 is 8.
8 goes into 40 5 times:
8 goes into 24 3 times.
We can rewrite this expression for distribution using the amount of times 8 goes into both numbers:
8(5 + 3)
Using this, we get:
8(5) + 8(3) = 40 + 24.
When multiplying fractions just multiply the numerator and denominators together, then simplify the fraction you get.
To solve the addition problem, first convert 2 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. It should be 5/2. Now 3/8 and 5/2 must be added together.
To add these, they must have the same denominator. Let's give 5/2 a denominator of 8, so it matches 3/8.
To give 5/2 a denominator of 8, you are starting with a denominator of 2. 2 × 4 = 8, so you must multiply 5/2 by 4.
You should get 20/8. Now you have to add 20/8 and 3/8. The only thing you add is the numerator, so you should get 23/8 as a final answer.
For the subtraction problem, do these same steps to make the fractions you must subtract have the same denominator, then subtract only the numerator to get the answer. Once you solve the subtraction problem, text me what you got so I can check it for you. :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: 2 raised to 2 or 2^2
is the same as saying 2*2 so 2 raised to 2 or 2^2 is 4
Answer:5.435
Step-by-step explanation: In math, the average value in a set of numbers is the middle value, calculated by dividing the total of all the values by the number of values. To find this answer, we need to find the average of a set of data, we add up all the values and divide this total by the numbers of values. So if you add 4.40, 3.12, 8.00 and 6.22 together, we get 21.74. There are four values (4.40, 3.12, 8.00 and 6.22) so we divide the amount of values there are, which would be four. 21.47/4 would then get you 5.435
Answer:
5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
A ratio is just a fraction comparing two quantities.
Ex: For every 5 trees, there were 3 elephants
This, into a fraction, would take the first number and make it the numerator and the second number into a the denominator.
Just think of the colon as a slash or a divide sign
