The GCF of 18 and 36 is 18. To solve this, use the picture attached. After creating the boxes, find a number that both 18 and 36 can be divided by, for example, 9. Now that you have 9, divide both 18 and 36 by 9. That equals 2 and 4. Place the numbers underneath the boxes you made previously and find another number that both 2 and 4 are divisible by. 2 and 4 are both able to be divided into 2. Do 2 divided by 2 and 4 divided by 2. Now you have the numbers 1 and 2. There aren't any numbers that can be divided into 1 and 2, so now you are left with the numbers 9 and 2. Multiply the numbers together to get a GCF of 18. Hope this helped!

Answer: A quantity grows exponentially when its increase is proportional to what is already there. A common example is compound interest, where $100 invested at 7% per year annual compound interest will double in 10 years. Similarly, if a population grows at 7% per year, it, too, will double in 10 years.

Staci is attending a music festival. The ticket to the festival costs $87.96. Staci plans to purchase $30.00 t-shirts from the e

ollegr [7]

Initial cash on hand : $200.00
Ticket cost : $87.96
T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00

The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.

$200 - 87.96 = $112.04

Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.

$112.04 / $30 = 3.73

Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.

$30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.

$112.04 - 90 = $22.04

After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.
