Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

You need the greatest common factor of 168 and 60.

168 = 2^3 * 3 * 7

60 = 2^2 * 3 * 5

For the GCF, you need common factors with the lower exponent.

Between 2^3 and 2^2, choose 2^2.

Then you have 3 as a common factor.

5 and seven are not common.

GCF = 2^2 * 3 = 12

Answer: 12

Andre says that 5 3/4 + 2 1/4 = 7 1/2 because 7 4/8 = 7 1/2. Identify his mistake. Draw a picture to prove that he is wrong.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

5\frac{3}{4}+2\frac{1}{4} =7\frac{4}{8}=7\frac{1}{2}

We will rewrite the expression

\frac{23}{4}+\frac{9}{4} =\frac{60}{8}=7\frac{1}{2}

When we add the fraction

\frac{23+9}{4} = \frac{32}{4} = 8

While Andre says the answer is 7\frac{1}{2}

because Andre added the denominator where he has to make a common denominator that should be 4 instead of 8.

Andre made mistake in this step

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Correct answer: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If I saw your fractions right it's like this:

(2 + x) / (5 + x) = 2 / 3 => 3 (2 + x) = 2 (5 + x) => 6 + 3 x = 10 + 2 x

3 x - 2 x = 10 - 6  => x = 4

We will check

2 + 4 / 5+ 4 = 6 / 9  

When we divide both numerator and denominator

with 3 we get 2/3

God is with you!!!

snow_tiger [21]

Answer: Tip- $9.16

Total bill will be $57.82

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill before tax is $45.80

6.25% sales tax implies 6.25/100 x 45.80= $2.86

20% tip = 20/100 x $45.80 = $9.16

Total bill is therefore $45.80+ $2.86+ $9.16

Find the missing leg if one leg is 18 units and the hypotenuse is 30 units
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume this is a right triangle with the information given

a^2+b^2 = c^2 is the Pythagorean theorem

18^2 + b^2 = 30^2

Subtract 18^2 from each side

18^2  - 18^2+ b^2 = 30^2 -18^2

b^2 =900 -324

b^2 =576

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(576)

b =24
