Answer with explanation:

Given : There are 32 forwards and 80 guards in Leos basketball league.

Leo must include all players on a team and wants each team to have the same number of forwards and the same number of guards.

Then, the greatest number of teams possible= greatest common factor of 32 and 80

Prime factorization of 32 and 80:-

32=2\times2\times2\times2\times2\\\\80=2\times2\times2\times2\times5

∴ GCF(32, 80)= 2\times2\times2\times2=16

Number of guards in each team =\dfrac{80}{16}=5

Hence, there are 5 guards in each team.

Close.  The greatest common factor between 32 and 80 is 16 not 8.  

32 (forwards) / 16 (teams) = 2 forwards on each team.

80 (guards) / 16 (teams) = 5 guards on each team.

icang [17]

The cities are 9.6 inches apart on map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

80 miles in actual = 0.75 inch

1 mile = \frac{0.75}{80}\ inch

Distance between two cities = 1025 miles

1025 miles on map = 1025*\frac{0.75}{80}\\

1025\ miles\ on\ map=\frac{768.75}{80}\\\\1025\ miles\ on\ map=9.6\ inches

The cities are 9.6 inches apart on map.
