Answer:

Largest possible number of sweets in each tray=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of orange-flavored sweets = 36

Number of grape-flavored sweets = 44

To find: largest possible number of sweets in each tray

Solution:

HCF(highest common factor) of two or more numbers refers to the greatest number which can divide the given numbers

To find largest possible number of sweets in each tray, find the HCF(highest common factor) of 36 and 44.

36=2^{2}\times 3^{2}\\44=2^{2}\times 11

So,

HCF(36,44)=2^{2}=4

So,

Largest possible number of sweets in each tray=4

What is the value of x that makes the given equation true?
Doss [256]
Hello there!

The correct answer is C

-----------------------------

x - 3x = 2(4 + x)
Distribute the right side
x - 3x = (2)(4)+(2)(x)
x - 3x = 8 + 2x
Combine like terms
x - 3x - 2x = 8
-4x = 8
Divide both sides by -4
-4x/4 = 8/4
x = -2

Hence,
The correct answer is c

Have a nice day!
