No on can explain it but it has a definition.
If you know the formular a^3+b^3=(a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2), you can solve this problem.
8 is 2 cubed, so x^3+2^3=(x+2)(x^2-2x+4)
so the other quadratic factor is x^2-2x+4
Gabby's recipe calls for 3 1/3 pounds of flour. If you divide 3 1/3 by 1/6, you get 5 measuring cups full. (1/3 is 2/6 so you add 2+3)
The formula to finding percentages is x% * y = c. So 7% of $4.90 is 0.343.
