Percentage by which the gas tank of the car is full = 40%
Amount of gas in the gas tank = 8 gallons
Let us assume the capacity of the gas tank = x gallons
Then
40% * x = 8
(40/100) * x = 8
4x/10 = 8
4x = 8 * 10
4x = 80
x = 80/4
   = 20 gallons
So the total capacity of the gas tank of the car is 20 gallons. I hope the procedure is clear to you.

16(a+b)^2-49(a-b)^2 factorize the expression​
noname [10]

The given expression is a difference of squares, so we have

16 (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)² - 49 (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)² = 4² (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)² - 7² (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²

… = (4 (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))² - (7 (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))²

… = (4 (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) - 7 (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)) (4 (<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) + 7 (<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))

… = (4<em>a</em> + 4<em>b</em> - 7<em>a</em> + 7<em>b</em>) (4<em>a</em> + 4<em>b</em> + 7<em>a</em> - 7<em>b</em>)

… = (-3<em>a</em> + 11<em>b</em>) (11<em>a</em> - 3<em>b</em>)
