The answer will be the biggest number, by which you can divide both 28 and 32. So you can divide them in 4 groups (28/4=7 girls per group & 32/4=8boys per group)

Answer:

4 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks, "What is the greatest number of groups the principal can make?" so, you have to find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

28: 1, 2, <u>4</u>, 7, 14, 28

32: 1, 2, <u>4</u>, 8, 16, 32

As you can see, 4 is the greatest common factor here.

So, the greatest number of groups that the principal can make is 4 groups.

The library is located 1.8 miles west of Callie’s house. The grocery store is located 2.4 miles south of the library. What is th
Verizon [17]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be 3 miles.

____________________________________________________

Explanation and work:

To find the answer for this question, we would use the numbers we know that was provided in the question and use it to get us the answer.

The equation we would use in this type of question is the Pythagorean Theorem.

Pythagorean Theorem:

a² + b² = c²

When you draw out the different locations, it would end up looking like a triangle since you trying to find the diagonal line from the grocery store to the house. In the triangle, it would be the hypotenuse. I will put a picture below.

Lets start solving:

1.8 would be plugged into "a"

2.4 will be plugged into "b"

(1.8)² + (2.4)² = c²

 ↓          ↓        ↓

3.24  + 5.76 =  c²

          ↓

          9  = c²

              ↓

      √9 = √c²

             ↓

         3  = c

3 miles would be your FINAL answer.
