Answer:

No, she couldn't have scored only two goals because that would mean Kenny scored six and 2 + 6 does not equal 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of goals Carrie scored

Let 3x = Number of goals Kenny scored (three times Carrie)

Now we set up an equation showing that they both scored a sum of 12 goals.

3x + x = 12

Combine like terms

4x = 12

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate variable x

x = 12/4

x = 3

Carrie scored 3 goals. So your answer is no.

What is 10/8 in simplest form
aliya0001 [1]
10/8 in simplest form:

First, we can start off by finding the GCF of the denominator and the numerator. To do so, we need to list the factors of each of them and find the common ones.

Factors of 10: 1, 2, 5, 10
Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, 8

We can see that our common factors are 1 and 2, considering that both the numerator and denominator has the same factors (1 and 2). Since we have our common factors, we need to find the greatest. Which is the greatest out of 1 and 2? The GCF is 2 because it is bigger than 1.

Second, divide the numerator and the denominator by the GCF (2).
10 \div 2 = 5  \\ 8 \div 2 = 4

Third, now we can revise our fraction and turn it into the simplest form. Take the two numbers you just got above us and put them in their numerator and denominator spot. You should get: \frac{5}{4}

Answer in fraction form: \fbox {5/4}
Answer in decimal form: \fbox {1.25}
Answer in mixed number form: \fbox {1 1/4}
