<h3>
Answer: (m+n)/(mn)</h3>
Work Shown:
Josh:
1 room = m hours
1/m room = 1 hour
Kevin:
1 room = n hours
1/n room = 1 hour
We see that the rates for Josh and Kevin are 1/m and 1/n respectively. This is the amount of a room they paint in one hour. Combine the fractions
1/m + 1/n = n/(mn) + m/(mn) = (n+m)/(mn) = (m+n)/(mn)
The expression (m+n)/(mn) represents how much of the room they get painted in 1 hour. This is if they work together and it assumes neither worker slows the other one down.
Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in
. This will become
, and
. Now, the expression is:
.
We can now simplify the bottom to read:
because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:

The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:

Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:

Hope this makes sense!!
Answer:
81
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 1296 by 16 to get the answer
product means ___ x ____ = product
since 16 is one of the numbers and 1296 is the product, it looks like this 16x___=1296
Let's use a for number of days when he shot 50 shots and b for number of days when he shot 100 shots.
We have:
a + b = 20
We also know that he shot total of 1250 shots:
50a + 100 b = 1250
We have two equations. We can solve them for a and b. Let's rearange first equation for a:
a= 20 - b
We insert this into second equation:
50 * (20 - b ) + 100b = 1250
1000 - 50b + 100b = 1250
50b = 250
b = 5
a = 20 - 5
a = 15
Mark shot 100 shots on 5 days.
