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.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

24,150

Solve the equation -6(2a + 7) = -22- 8a
Andru [333]

Answer: a = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, open up the brackets, and solve it

-12a -42 = -22 -8a. (-6 x 2a, and -6 x 7)

bring the -8a to the left side, so that all the a’s are together

-12a -42 + 8a = -22 (add -42 on both sides like we did with -8a)

-12a + 8a = -22 + 42

solve

-4a = 20

divide -4 on both sides

a = -5
