So 72 pencils and 24 calculators
so greates number of identical calculators
this means
what is the biggest number that we can divide 72 and 24 by and get a whole number
this is called the GCM or greatest common multipule
to find the GCM, you factor 72 and group the like ones
72=2 times 2 times 2 times 3 times 3
24=2 times 2 times 2 times 3
so the common group is 2 times 2 times 2 times 3 or 24
so the greates number of packs is 24
so pencils
72 divided by 24=72/24=3
3 pencils per pack
24 divided by 24=24/24=1
1 calulator per pack
answer is 3 pencils and 1 calculator per pack
Answer:
4
or 4.75
Step-by-step explanation:
first we're going to convert the number into improper fractions.
7
=
and 2
= 
For subtracting it is suitable to adjust both fractions to an equal denominator, so we're going to multiply
x2, it'll equal the same number.
So now we have
-
, 30-11= 19.
simplified is, 4
.
As you can see I also added 4.75 as an answer, that's if the answer must be a decimal.
I hope this helps you!
3x+2 (5x-1)=11
3x +10x -2=11
3x+10x=13
13x=13
X=1
