Question Modified

If a,b, and c are prime numbers, do (a+b) and c have a common factor that is greater than 1?

(1) a,b, and c are all different prime numbers

(2) c≠2

Explanation

1. Let's assume values of 1,3 and 5 to a, b, and c respectively

a + b = 1+3 = 4

4 and 5 do not have any common factor aside 1

Let's assume values of 1,3 and 2 to a,b and c respectively

a + b = 1+3 = 4

4 and 2 have a common factor of 2

So, the available information is not sufficient

Let's assume values of 2,7 and 3 to a b and c response

a + b = 2 + 7 = 9

9 and 3 have a common factor of 3

Also, let's assume values of 2,7 and 5 to a, b and c

a + b = 2 + 7 = 9

9 and 5 do not have a common factor

So, the available information is also not sufficient to answer the question.

35 miles per hour to feet per minute

guapka [62]

35 miles is equal to 35*5280, which is 184,800.
Now we know that it takes one hour to travel 184,800.
The next step is to divide 184,800 by 60, which is 3,080.
So it takes one minute to travel 3,080 feet. Hope this helps.

Samantha’s college runs on a trimester schedule so she receives a bill 3 times a year for tuition. Each trimester costs $1,450,

matrenka [14]

3 times a year for 2 years is equal to 3 x 2, or 6. So we know that she will have to pay her bill 6 times.

The cost for each trimester is $1450, but we still have to add the book costs ($350). So, 1450 + 350 = 1800.

Now we know that she has to pay $1800 six times. So the equation will be:

1800 x 6 = 10800.

It will cost Samantha $10,800 to get her degree.
