Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 16/24 the simplest form you can find the GCF (greatest common factor) of 16 and 24:

16:

1 x 16

2 x <u>8</u>

4 x 4

24:

1 x 24

2 x 12

3 x <u>8</u>

4 x 6

They both have a factor of 8 in common, so 8 is your GCF

Divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF) to get the most simplified fraction.

16 / 8 = 2

24 / 8 = 3

2/3 is the simplest form of 16/24

Jake is observing the population growth of insects. He started with 24 insects and the population triples every day.
Artemon [7]
Everyday the number is tripled by 3 and x represents the number of days, which we don’t know, so it would be 3x.
He started with 24.

So the equation is:

24+(3x)
