4. The students in Mr. Michael’s art class are decorating a booth for Harvest Day. They have blue cloth that is 60 inches long,

MrRissso [65]

Length of blue cloth is 60 inches , length of gold cloth is 48 inches and length of white cloth is 72 inches.

<u>a.</u>

As, the length of all pieces are equal, so for getting the greatest possible length of the pieces, we need to find <u>GCF(greatest common factor) of 60, 48 and 72. </u>

First we will factor out all three numbers completely......

$60=2*2*3*5\\ \\ 48=2*2*2*2*3\\ \\ 72=2*2*2*3*3$

The common factors are: 2, 2 and 3

Thus the GCF $= 2*2*3=12$

So, the greatest possible length of the pieces without having any cloth left over will be 12 inches.

<u>b. </u>

For finding the number of pieces for each color cloth, we will just <u>divide the length of each cloth by 12</u>. So...

Number of pieces for blue cloth $=\frac{60}{12}=5$

Number of pieces for gold cloth $=\frac{48}{12}=4$ and

Number of pieces for white cloth $=\frac{72}{12}=6$

For synthetic division:
1) Write the coefficients of the polynomial under the division symbol, in order. Make sure you include coefficients that are 0, so they may not be written out in the polynomial!
The coefficients are 7, 1, 0 (the coefficient of x), and -4 in that order

2) The divisor is in the form of x - a. The number "a" goes outside the bracket.
a = 5

Since 7, 1, 0, -4 are under the bracket and 5 is outside the bracket, the answer is C.
