First, we know that when multiplying fractions, we multiply both the numerator and denominator.
so, in 4/9 • 4/5,
4•4 = 16, and
9•5 = 45
so, 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45.
now, we’ll look for the Least Common Factor
factors are numbers that you can multiply together to = another number.
the LEAST common Factor is the # that is smallest that you can divide both numbers by, in an equation and get a whole number.
for instance, 3•3 and 1•9 are the only ways to get 9, so, the factors are 1, 3, 9
let’s look for the LCF in 16 and 45. -
if we find the ways to get 16, we have:
1•16, 2•8, and 4•4
so, the factors are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
this is called FACTORING :)
the ways to get 45 are...
1•45, 3•15, and 5•9, so the FACTORS are
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, & 45.
- compare the factors of 16 & 45,
none of them are the same besides 1, and we know that dividing these numbers by 1 will not do anything.
because of this, we can not reduce 16/45, so the reduced answer to 4/9 • 4/5 = 16/45
(2(8)-12)+(12(8)(2)-10)
(16-12)+(132-10)
4+122=126
THE ANSWER WOULD BE 126 :D
Answer:
g(a+1)=5a+2
Step-by-step explanation:
so (a+1) is the value of x
you can write it like this:
x=a+1
using substitution, we can swap out all 'x's for 'a+1's. like so;
g(a+1)=5(a+1)-3 -- given
=5a+5-3 -- distribute
=5a+2 -- simplify!
Hope i helped! have a great day! please mark brainliest!!
Let the consecutive even numbers be n and n+2.
From given condition,
n + n+2 = 66
2n = 64
∴ n = 32.
Therefore, the two consecutive even numbers are.
n = 32 and n+2 = 34.
