Answer:

6(3+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property:

ab + ac = a(b+c)

where a = greatest common factor (GCF)

GCF of each factor

18 = 2×3×3

12 = 2×2×3

GCF of 18 and 12 = 2×3

= 6

Therefore,

18 + 12 = 6(3) + 6(2)

= 6(3+2)

Where,

6 = a

3 = b

2 = c

ab + ac = a(b+c)

1/4 cups is how much pints

oksano4ka [1.4K]

First we need the equivalence between cups and pints to solve this question, the equivalence is:
1 cup is 0.5 pint
So we can use a rule of three simple, direct proportion to solve the problem, we change the fraction 1/4 = 0.25 to ease calculations:
1 cup ----> 0.5 pint
0.25 cup ---> x

x = (0.25)(0.5)/1
x = 0.125

Therefore 1/4 cups is equivalent to 0.125 pints
