If the correct sum is 1155, then Ken had 495 stamps, and Henry had 660 stamps.
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry had h stamps.
Ken had k stamps.
After giving away 2/3 of his stamps, Henry ended up with 1/3 of his stamps, or h/3.
After giving away 3/4 of his stamps, ken ended up with 1/4 of his stamps, or k/4.
h/3 = k/4
h + k = 1156
4h = 3k
h = 1156 - k
4(1156 - k) = 3k
4624 - 4k = 3k
4624 = 7k
k = 4624/7
Stamps left: 0.25 × 4624/7 = 1156/7
h = 1156 - k
h = 1156 - 4624/7
h = 8092/7 - 4624/7
h = 3468/7 =495.43
Stamps left: 1/3 × 3468/7 = 1156/7
Total number of stamps left: 1156/7 + 1156/7 = 2312/7 = 330.29
The problem is solved correctly, but the numbers given must be incorrect since you cannot have a fraction of a stamp.
Answer:
Exact form 105/2
Decimal form 52.5
Mixed number 52 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
I hope this helps I just didn't know what you were asking
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The greatest common factor is the largest factor that both numbers contain. Let's look at the factors of these terms.
12x²: 1, 12, 2, 6, 3, 4, x, x
15x³: 1, 15, 3, 5, x, x ,x
We see that both of these numbers contain a 3 and 2 x's, so our GCF would be 3x².
Have a wonderful day!
