Let white marbles = x

Purple marbles = 5x + 2

Given:

x + 5x + 2 = 104

6x = 102

x = 17

Purple marbles = 5(17) + 2 = 85 + 2 = 87

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Square roots have a neat property: \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\sqrt{b} provided <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are positive real numbers.

This property is what's behind simplifying square roots.  You look for perfect square factors (4, 9, 16, 25, 36, ...) inside the square root sign.

Example: \sqrt{20}=\sqrt{4\times5}=\sqrt{4}\sqrt{5}=2\sqrt{5}.

In this problem, both factors are perfect squares.

\sqrt{9\times144}=\sqrt{9}\sqrt{144}=3\times12=36
