Answer: 2(8a+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor means to find a number that can divide all the terms in the expression and leave whole number quotients. The factor is written outside the bracket while the quotients are written inside the bracket. In the question, 2 can divide both 16a and 10 giving 8a and 5. This is how the answer was obtained.

A sightseeing boat charges $5 for children and $8 for adults. on its first trop of the day, it collected $439 for 71 paying pass

Mrac [35]

if 71 paying passengers are all children, they should pay 5* 71= $355 in total.

$439 is paid so adults pay $439-$355 = $84 more than money paid by same number of children.

each adult pays $8-$5=$3 more than each child

so there are $84/$3= 28adults

and 71-28= 43 children
