By using the information you have, you can use make a proportion to solve this. You burn 4 logs in 2 hours or 4/2. You are comparing this to your unknown number, x, over 8 hours. So it looks like this 4/2 = x/8. You read it as four logs in two hours is x logs in eight hours. To solve you cross multiply. You do 2 times x and 4 times eight. That would be 2x= 32. Your goal is getting x alone, so divide each side by 2. Your answer is x= 16 logs in eight hours. You can solve this different and maybe easier ways but this is the best way if you want to get used to going this in algebra. Hope that helps! :)

Distributive Property Using GCF<br><br> 25 + 30
postnew [5]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's look at the factors of each of these numbers.

25

1,25

5,5

30

1,30

2,15

3,10

5,6

The greatest common factor between these is 5. Therefore, we divide 25+30 by 5 and put the 5 on the outside.

5(5+6).

This has the same value but it is just written differently.

Have a wonderful day! :D
