Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A factor tree is not unique for a given number. Instead of expressing 36 as 2 × 18, we can express 36 as 6 × 6. Prime factorization of 36 using factor tree method is 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 2² × 3².
You would set it up like this: 150x + 280 = 255x The you just solve.
We will use addition to find the length of the new, longer hose.
6.25 feet + 5.755 feet + 6.5 feet = 18.505 feet is the length of the new longer hose.
