Multiply 14 to each term: 14a+70+84b
Question 1:
73 is a prime number. It can only be divided by 1 and by itself.
The GCF of the three numbers:
54 36 73
1×54 1×36 1×73
2×27 2×18
3×18 3×12
6×9 4×9
6×6
GCF of 54, 36 and 73 is 1
GCF of 54 and 36 is 18
If we divide 54 apples into 18 baskets, we have 3 apples in each basket
If we divide 36 oranges into 18 baskets, we have 2 oranges in each basket
If we divide 73 bananas into 18 baskets, we have 4 bananas in each basket + one banana left over.
So the greatest number of identical fruit baskets we can make with the least amount of fruit left over is 18 baskets
Transferring Mph to Mps, your answer would be: 3.4027778 meters per second
The associative property states that we can add numbers in any way we want to still get the same sum, so the parenthesis here can essentially be tossed out to get 3x+2-5=3x-3. However, make sure, for example, that you don't add x and 1 together in 3(x)+1 as you still have to multiply the x with 3 before adding the 1 according to PEMDAS
