7/10 - 1/4 use common denominators
28/40 - 10/40 = 18/40 = 9/20
Using the least common factor, it is found that:
- a) 60 packages should be bought.
- b) There will be 5 filled goody bags.
<h3>
Least Common Factor:</h3>
- The sizes of the packages are: 10, 6, 15 and 12.
- To fill each bag and have no left-overs, the number of packages is the <u>least common factor</u> of these amounts.
- The least common factor is found factoring the numbers into prime factors.
Item a:
10 - 6 - 15 - 12|2
5 - 3 - 15 - 6|2
5 - 3 - 15 - 3|3
5 - 1 - 5 - 1|5
1 - 1 - 1 - 1
Hence, lcf(10,6,15,2) = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60.
60 packages should be bought.
Item b:
Goody bags are in packages of 12, hence:
60/12 = 5.
There will be 5 filled goody bags.

Answer:
6n
Step-by-step explanation:
A product refers to the multiplication of two or more numbers.
6n is the equivalent of 6*n
An absolute value is positive value of any value. So the abs value of -28 is 28. The abs value of 67 is 67. Makes sense?
If it were |27-3| for example, treat the inside of a abs as parenthesis, so you must complete PEMDAS inside of it to reduce the equation to |24|, unless you wanted it to become |27| - |3|.
For functions, this becomes slightly different and more difficult, especially when adding a variable such as x. Look below for a sample equation.
|2x-3|=1
This equation will actually have (and most others) 2 solutions for x. To find these, you’ll need to multiply the inside of the abs by -1 for one equation, and leave it as it is for the other!
2x-3=1 -(2x-3)=1
Now you have to solve BOTH equations to get your correct x-value answers.
For the first listed equation:
2x=4
x=2
For the second listed equation:
-2x+3=1
-2x=-2
x=-1
So you get the x-values -1 and 2 which both make the parent function true!
