His answer works ... it gives 150, which is the same as (60 + 90) ... but he didn't deliver exactly what the problem asked for.

It asked for the <u>GCF</u> to be outside the parentheses, and he put  '3'  there.

'3'  is certainly one common factor of 60 and 90, but it's far from being the
greatest one. 

The GCF  of 60 and 90 is actually  30 .  So the absolutely positively technically correct response to the instructions in the problem would be  30(2 + 3).

If there are 120 calories in 4 ounces of hot fudge, how many calories are in 8
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

240 calories

Step-by-step explanation

You're doubling the amount of fudge, so double the amount of calories. You could also think of it as 2 4-oz portions of fudge, then just add the calories (120+120) together.

Can you describe multiplying and dividing signed numbers in the real world? plz Explain
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The example I would be using is the level of a see-saw and take a point 1 /x of the way amid the middle and the left end. If you change the point vertically by f feet, the far right finish transfers vertically by f×−x feet. If you push down, f would be negative then you are multiplying two negative numbers for a positive result, this means that the other end moves up.
