Answer:

(2*3)=6; 60= (2*3)*2*5 (prime factorization)

The numbers in the parenthesis can't be taken out because they are the HCF

So just move the 2 and the 5 on both sides and you'll get two pairs that are (6,30) and (12,30)

Roger has 2 1/2 cups of butter. A recipe for a loaf of bread requires 3/4 cup of butter. How many loaves can roger bake?

Alchen [17]

In order to calculate the number of loaves Roger can bake, we should calcculate how many times 3/4 (required butter for one loaf of bread) is included in 2 1/2 (amount of butter Roger has).

2 1/2=4/2+1/2=5/2

(5/2)/(3/4)=5*4/2*3=20/6=3,33

Roger can bake 3 loaves of bread.

Translate to an algebraic statement. "The quotient of twice a number and 7 is 20."

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Translation: 2x/7 = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

When we listen to the word "quotient", it means the solution to a division problem.
An unknown number that has been multiplied by 2 is in the numerator because it came before the 7 in the statement.
The number "7" is in the denominator because it came after the 2x in the statement.
The word "is" represents an equal sign.
The solution to the division problem (quotient) is 20.

If we put these clues together, we get 2x/7 = 20 as our translated equation.

Hence, our algebraic statement is 2x/7 = 20. The key is to listen to the statement.

Which of the following is the radical expression of a to the four ninths power ?

LuckyWell [14K]

Given expression in exponential form : $a^{\frac{4}{9} }$ .

We need to convert it into radical form.

Please note: When we convert an exponential to radical form, the top number goes in the exponent of the term and bottom number of the fraction goes in the radical sign to make it nth radical.

We can apply following rule:

$(a)^{\frac{m}{n}}= \sqrt[n]{x^m}$ .

Therefore,

$a^{\frac{4}{9} }= \sqrt[9]{a^4}$ .

Therefore, correct option is : D. ninth root of a to the fourth power.
