Question

Enter the sum of numbers as a product of their GCF. 75 + 30 The sum of the numbers as a product of their GCF is

Answer 1

Answer: 75+30 = 15 x 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is 75+30 (=105) which defines the sum of 75 and 30.

Prime factorization of 75 and 30 are as below:

75 = 5 x 5 x 3

30 = 5 x 3 x 2

GCD (75,30) = 5x 3 = 15  [Note: GCD = Greatest common divisor]

Consider 75+30 = (15 x 5) + (15 x 2)   [75 = 15 x 5 and 30= 15 x 2]

=  15 (5+2)   [taking 15 as common ]

= 15 x (7)

(=105)

So,  75+30 which is sum of the numbers and it is expressed as 15 x 7 which  a product of their GCF.
