Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
For 3 to be factor your finale number has to be divisible by 3, so with that information all you have to do is subtract 245-16 which is 229, and if you divide 229 by 3 it does not equal a whole number so 3 cannot be a factor.
I hope this helps, and have a great day! :D
Absolute value means that there is no negatives. You can use absolute value to measure distance. There is no "negative distance".
All you would do for this problem is take -282 and make it into an absolute value ( which is the same number but not a negative )
-282
=|282|
=282
Its really simple
