Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What this question is asking of you is what is the greatest common divisor of 12 and 15. Or, what is the biggest number that divides both 12 and 15.
in order to find this we have to split each number into it's prime components.
for 12 they are 2,2 and 3 (
2
⋅
2
⋅
3
=
12
)
and for 15 they are 3 and 5 (
3
⋅
5
=
15
)
Out of those two groups (2,2,3) and (3,5) the only thing in common is 3, so 3 is the greatest common divisor. That tells us that the greatest number of groups that can exist and have the same number of girls and the same number of boys for each group is 3.
Now to find out how many girls and boys there are going to be in each group we divide the totals by 3, so:
12
3
=
4
girls per group, and
15
3
=
5
boys per group.
(just as a thought exercise, if there were 16 boys, the divisors would have been (2,2,3) and (2,2,2,2), leaving us with 4 groups [

] of 3 girls [12/4] and 4 boys [16/4] )
Answer: Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance from present location to CheapGas = 4 miles
Price of gas at CheapGas is $0.37 cheaper
Hence, the decision to make a U-turn back to CheapGas or continue on intended destination will rely on two factors ;
1) The number of gallons of gas to purchase
2) The cost of gas required to return to cheap gas.
If a substantial amount of gas is to be purchased, may be 50, 100 or more gallons, the amount saved by making a turn back to cheapGas and purchase gas at $0.37 cheaper per gallon.
Answer:
(x+4)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is a simple help for when you can take a square root of both terms:
(x+(squareroot)) x (x-(squareroot))
x times x = x^2
4 x -4 = -16
This is just a learned skill, most often from Alg 2, Alg 2 w/ trig, and Precal!
Hope this helps!
