17/12 because 17 is a prime number and can't be simplified
A mixed number is a combination of a whole number and a fraction, so in this case we have 8 as the whole part and 0.45 as the fraction, 0.45 is equal to 45/100, and that fraction can be simplified as well, lets see:
8.45 = 8 45/100

Answer:
distributive property solve 3 into 4 - 2
First you can apply the a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b) theorem, you'll get:
(p²)² - 9² = (p²+9)(p²-9), but that's not all, you can apply it again on the last factor:
(p²+9)(p²-3²) = (p²+9)(p+3)(p-3)
The first factor cannot be simplified like that, so that's the furthest factorization. So answer (3) is the right one.
