Answer:lets use 24/30 x 30/60

Without dividing out GCFs  you would get 24x12 over 30 x 60 which is 288/1800

With dividing out GCFs you get 2/1 x 5/1 Which is 7

Lets get an example, for this example lets use 24/30 x 30/60
Without dividing out GCFs  you would get 24x12 over 30 x 60 which is 288/1800
With dividing out GCFs you get 2/1 x 5/1 Which is 7 :)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 150cm. The length is 15cm greater than the width. Find the dimensions
ANEK [815]
150/4 = 37.5cm. You divide by four because there are four sides on a rectangle. But 37.5 is the cm of a square. Since it says one of the sides is 15cm greater, you subtract 37.5 - 15 = 27.5cm on 2 of the width. While the other 2 lengths are greater than the width by 15 cm, so you add 15 to 37.5 which gives you 52.5cm. So the 2 width are 27.5cm and the length is 52.5cm.

Use the distributive property to expand -4 (-2/5 + 3 x). Which is an equivalent expression?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

8/5-12x.

Step-by-step explanation:

To distribute, you simply need to multiply each of the terms inside of the parenthesis by -4. This will give you:

=-4(\frac{-2}{5})-4(3x)

=8/5-12x. This is your answer!

Anyone who know how to do this answer i will give you 20 Brainly points and mark the Braninllest person who get it right.
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Answer is A

Step-by-step explanation:

(14x^4y^6)/(7x^8y^2)

because everything is one term, you can split into three terms

14/7, x^4 / x^8 , and y^6/y^2

multiplying these three terms will get us the starting term

14/7 = 2

x^4 / x^8

with division of exponents, you subtract the smaller exponent (4), from the big exponent (8), and leave it on the same side (bottom) as the big exponent

1/x^4

same thing with our y's

y^6/y^2

this time, the term stays on the top

y^4

take the simplified terms and multiply them together

(2) * (1/x^4) * (y^4) =

A: (2y^4) / (x^4)
