First, find the GCF. For these two numbers, it is 36. (Because 36 times 1 is 36 and 36 times 2 is 72)
Divide both sides by this, which gives you a
2:1 ratio
Because if it was even, then it would be divisble by 2 which makes it not prime

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to study the fuel consumption of each car, i.e the amount of mile per gallon the cars will consume
Step one:
given data:
First car
distance covered= 41 1/2 = 41.5miles
amount of gallons= 1 1/4= 1.25gal
the miles per gallons= 41.5/1.25=33.2 miles per gallon
Second car
distance covered= 21 3/5= 21.6miles
amount of gallons=4/5= 0.8gal
the miles per gallons= 21.6/0.8=27 miles per gallon
1. Therefore the unit rate of
the first car = 33.2 miles per gallon
the second car=27 miles per gallon
2. the first car can travel a greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline
Answer:
28 -16n
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property, then collect terms.
4 +8(-2n +3)
= 4 +8(-2n) +8(3)
= 4 -16n +24
= 28 -16n
_____
This could also be written
-16n +28
but then the leading sign would be negative. Sometimes leading minus signs get lost, so I prefer the first term to be positive.
