The answer is no because after each 3 there is one more zero added
to be repeating the number of zeros would have to stay the same
Let number of plastic containers collected by fourth grade= x
Then number of plastic containers collected by fifth grade students=x-216
OR
If number of plastic container collected by fifth grade is y
then number of plastic container collected by fourth grade=y+216
So, we can write it as follows
⇒ number of plastic containers collected by fourth grade= number of plastic containers collected by fifth grade +216
Answer:
I would think y equals 2

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say we wanted to find the LCM of 6 and 8.
First, write the prime factorization of both:
6 = 2×3
8 = 2³
Let's include all the exponents:
6 = 2¹×3¹
8 = 2³×3⁰
The LCM needs to have the prime factors with the highest exponents.
So we need prime factors of 2 and 3. The exponent of the 2 will be three, and the exponent of the 3 will be one.
LCM = 2³×3¹
LCM = 24
