Taking out the greatest common factor
GCF of 40, 40 and 32 = 8
GCF of n^4, n^3 and n^3 is n^3
so the factors are
8n^3(5nm^2 +5m^3 - 4)
Answer:
7/8 of a gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
First find a common denominator for each of the values, in this case eighths. Next, add the total water used for the tomatoes and peppers (you'll get 7/8 gallons). Then, convert the 2 and a half gallons to eighths, getting 20/8 of a gallon. Next, subtract the 7/8 from the 20/8; getting 13/8. Since you need to find the amount of water used for the lettuce, subtract the last value from 3/4 gallons (or 6/8)
The total number of pencils is 2,160. When estimating to the nearest hundredth one gets 2,200, which is an underestimate.
The advantage of underestimating is that your answer is more accurate than an overestimate.
