Remember that x/4 and 1/4*x is the same thing.
1/4*52 is therefore the same as 52/4. Fractions represent division, so 52 divided by 4 is also correct.
0.25*x is the same as 1/4*x because 1/4=0.25
4% of 52 is incorrect because the decimal form of 4% is 0.04, which is not the same as 0.25
Final answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
Both methods start out with a factor<span> tree. A </span>factor<span> tree is a diagram that is used to break down a number into its </span>factors until<span> all the numbers left are </span>prime. The first way you can use a factor<span> tree to find the </span>factorization of a number is to divide out prime<span> numbers only. Let's </span>factor<span> 24 using this method.</span>
Lisa did not completely solve the equation. When she was left with x^2 = 9, she should have taken the square root of x and 9 to isolate the variable. She would have gotten x = 3 or x = -3.
