Well, to factor out we have to find the gratest common factor of 54 and 24 which is 6. then divide both numbers by that number
54/6=9 24/6=4
6(9a+4b) is your final answer
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 3(k + 3) = 6(k - 2) + 9
3 + 3k + 9 = 6k - 12 + 9
12 + 12 - 9 = 6k - 3k
15 = 3k
k = 15/3
k = 5
He paid him : 24t + 15
for 3 hrs...
24(3) + 15 = 72 + 15 = $ 87
