An equivalent ratio of 27/60 could be 9/20
How did I get that answer?
I just simplified 27/60 by 3
1, 1, 1, 1, 4, 7, 7
Median (middle) = 1
Mode (most common) = 1
Range (largest# minus smallest#) = 6
5, 10, 10, 15, 15, 15, 20
Median = 15
Mode = 15
Range = 15
9 3/10- 1 7/10 is 7.6 or 7 3/5
5s or 2 is the correct answer.
you split the problem into two separate problems and go from there.
so, (5x+15) and (xy+3y) then you take out the common factor in both
so, positive 5 out of (5x+15) and positive y out of (xy+3y)
you'll then have 5(x+3) and y(x+3)
The x=3 is similar in both problems so you can combine them to make one and combine the two factors you took out to make another problem.
So your final answer is (x+3)(5+y)
