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)

88

Following order of operations:

3^2 = 9

(10-2) = 8

Now you have :

9 + 8 x 5 -4

Multiplication is next:

9 + 40 -4

Now just add and subtract from left to right:

9 + 40 = 49

49-4 = 45

The answer is 45

Eliza is a chef at a restaurant. she is making spaghetti sauce and put 21 tomatoes and 6 onions in the pot. what is the ratio of
seraphim [82]
These are not hard....u just have to pay very close attention to the wording. Keep in mind ratios can be written as fractions too.

ratio of tomatoes to onions = 21:6 which reduces to 7:2...because there is 21 tomatoes and 6 onions. (21/6 reduces to 7/2...ratios written as fractions)

However, if it would have asked the ratio of onions to tomatoes, it would have been 6:21....which reduces to 2:7....so pay attention to the wording on problems such as these

so ur answer is 7:2
