Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor. 56 + 32 =

Mathematics

valentina_108 [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8 * (7 + 4)

See process below

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by writing each number in PRIME factor form:

56 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 7

32 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

Notice that the factors that are common to BOTH numbers are 2 * 2 * 2 (the product of three factors of 2).Therefore we see that the greatest common factor for the given numbers is : 2 * 2 * 2 = 8

Using this, we can write the two numbers as the product of this common factor (8) times the factors that are left on each:

56 = 8 * 7

32 = 8 * 2 * 2 = 8 * 4

We can then use distributive property to "extract" that common factor (8) from the given addition as shown below:

56 + 32

8 * 7 + 8 * 4

8 * (7 + 4)

8 * (11)

An item is regularly priced at $80. Juan bought It at a discount of 20% off the regular price. How much did Juan pay?
Gnesinka [82]
Hello there! So, the item has a 20% discount, but Juan still had to pay 80% for the item. To find the amount he paid, all you have to do is multiply the price by the percentage. We multiply by 80%, because he still had to pay the portion of the price. 80 * 80% (0.8) is 64. The. Juan paid $64.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the signs rule:

IF:

There is a + sign, and the number directly next is +, add

There is a + sign, and the number directly next is -, subtract

There is a - sign, and the number directly next is +, subtract

There is a - sign, and the number directly next is -, add

In this case, there is a plus sign, and a negative sign, therefore, subtract:

5 + (-4) = 5 - 4 = 1

1 is your answer.
