How do you find out GCF (Greatest Common Factor) and LCM (Least Common Multiple)?

Mamont248 [21]

To find the GCF, first you must factor the 2 or more numbers. The GCF is the highest factor the numbers have in common. for example: you have 12 and 8. If you factor out the numbers for 12, you get
1,2,3,4,6,12
For 8, you get:
1,2,4,8
the GCF of this pair is 4 because it is the highest number that goes into both 8 and 12.
To find the LCM, you must find the first number that was multiplied and it must be the same. lets take 3 and 5. Multiply 3 by as many numbers you can think of. For now, lets just go up to 10.
3, 6, 9, 12 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30
now to the same for 5:
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50
in both 3 and 5, the first set of numbers that match in 30- therefore the LCM of 3 and 5 in 30. I hope this helps!

Here are two expressions whose product is a new expression, :

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. Fill in the box with 1

2. Fill in the box with -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression:

$(-2x^3 + [\ ]x)(x^{[\ ]}+1.5) = A$

Solving (1): Fill in the box to make it a polynomial.

To make it a polynomial, we simply fill in the box with a positive integer (say 1)

Fill in the box with 1

$(-2x^3 + [1]x)(x^{[1]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 + x)(x^1+1.5) = A$

$(-2x^3 + x)(x+1.5) = A$

Open bracket

$-2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x = A$

Reorder

$A = -2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x$

The above expression is a polynomial.

This will work for any positive integer filled in the box

Solving (2): Fill in the box to make it not a polynomial.

The powers of a polynomial are greater than or equal to 0.

So, when the boxes are filled with a negative integer (say -2), the expression will cease to be a polynomial

Fill in the box with -2

$(-2x^3 + [-2]x)(x^{[-2]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5) = A$

Reorder

$A = (-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5)$

Open brackets

$A = -2x-3x^3-2x^{-1}-3x$

Collect Like Terms

$A = -3x^3-2x-3x-2x^{-1}$

$A = -3x^3-5x-2x^{-1}$

Notice that the least power of x is -1.

Hence, this is not a polynomial.

A survey of students' favorite sports was taken from a random sample of

White raven [17]

Answer:

129

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the survey to be representative, you can simply multiply the share of students p preferring “Track & Field” with the whole school population at the same time to estimate the number of such students in the whole school.

First we need to find the relative share p of such answers in the study by dividing it by the sum of answers, assuming that the table is complete for that random sample:

p = 4/(8 + 5 + 4) = 4/17

Then for the whole school we get 550 p ≈ 129.4

Cameron's uncle is 3 times old as he is. 4 years ago, he was 4 times older. How old is Cameron?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Let Cameron be x years old now.

-

Now:

Cameron = x

Uncle =3x

-

4 years ago:

Cameron = x - 4

Uncle = 3x - 4

-

4 years ago, Uncle is 4 times older:

3x - 4 = 4(x - 4)

-

Find x:

3x - 4 = 4(x - 4)

3x - 4 = 4x - 16

4x - 3x = 16 - 4

x = 12

-

Find the age:

Cameron = x = 12

-

Answer: Cameron is 12 years old now.
