Answer:

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number is a number that you don't get a whole number when divided by 2 but you do get a whole number when divided by prime numbers such as 3,5,7,11... Basically a number with two factors, it can only be divided by 1 or themselves. for example:

9/2 = 4.5 (this is not a whole number so it might be a prime.

9/3 = 3 (it works when divided by a prime number.

another:

8/2 = 4 (it gives a whole number when divided by 2 therefor, it can't be a prime number.

Answering:

There are 6 prime numbers at the top^^^^.

One possible answer is  2, 3, 5, 41, 67, 89

Another possible answer is  2, 3, 5, 47, 61, 89

Other answers may be possible.

=============================================================

Explanation:

This is a trial and error type of problem. Though with practice it's not as blind of randomly guessing.

We have 9 values here. If we paired them up, then we can form at most 4 pairs (since 9/2 = 4.5 rounds down to 4). That means we won't be able to form six two-digit primes. Some of the primes must be single digits.

We can have 3 single digit primes and 3 two-digit primes since 3+2*3 = 9.

The single digit primes are: 2, 3, 5, 7

Let's say 2 and 5 are definitely locked down to be the single digit group. I'm doing this since we can't have 2 or 5 as the units digit. If the units digit is 2, then 2 is a factor and it's not prime. Similarly, if 5 is the units digit, then 5 is a factor and that two digit value is not prime.

For good measure, we'll throw 3 in there as well and see what happens.

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

The digits we have left are: 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9

The number 14 isn't prime, but 41 is prime

67 is prime so that's another two values off the list

lastly, 89 is prime so that works as well.

So one possible sequence is 2, 3, 5, 41, 67, 89

Notice how we can swap the 1 and 7 to go from 41,67 to 47,61; this gets us two other primes. So another possible answer is 2, 3, 5, 47, 61, 89

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

Side note: having the list of primes on a reference sheet is a handy recommendation. You only need to go up as high as 97 which is the largest two digit prime.

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 4: 2x + 8 = 11

step 5: 2x +8 - 8 = 11 -8

step 6: 2x/2 = 3/2

step 7: <u>x = 3/2</u>

By looking at the calculation below, write down a multiplication fact using the same numbers.
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

98 x 3 = 294 or 3 x 98 = 294

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 294 divided by 3 is 98, that means 294 is 3 times 98. So, we can say:

3 x 98 = 294

We can also say that 98 x 3 = 294 since it doesn't matter in which order you multiply.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

<em>In the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Division by Sharing</u>

A certain amount M can be evenly split among n parties by performing a division M/n.

The first group of six friends earned $45 and they split it evenly, i.e. the same amount goes to each member. Each of them received $45/6= $7.50 apiece.

The second group of four friends won the second-place prize of $35 and they split it evenly also. Each member received $35/4=$8.75.

By comparing both numbers, we see that 8.75 is a bigger fraction of 35 that 7.50 is of 45. Each member from the second-place price will receive more money than the first group.

We can conclude in the second group the individual members received a larger fraction of the prize money
