Answer:

20% of 50 oz is 10 oz, but 20% of 60 oz is 12 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 60 is a larger number than 50, so percentage changes to it will be larger.

Don't forget to thanks and rate if correct :D

I will show you how to do the first one.....we are finding the GCF...the largest number that goes into each number (same for variables)

1.)  20yx , 80x³  ( factor each number and variable)

20  =  2, 4, 5, 10, 20
y    =  y
x     =  x
80  =  2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80
x³  =  x, x, x

what is the largest number that 20 and 80 have in common?    20...
how about the variables?    x

so, the Greatest Common Factor (GCF is 20x)
