Write a number as prime factors means to write the number as a product of numbers, all of which are prime. We start by checking whether the number is divisible by prime numbers, starting from the smallest prime number,2.
let's divide 24 into its factors.
first, it's even, so it must divide by 2
24=2*12
12 is also even, so it must divide by 2:
24=2*12=2*2*6
6 is also even, so it must divide by 2:
24=2*12=2*2*6=2*2*2*3
3 is not even, but it's a prime number.
so the solution is
2*2*2*3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
These types of equations are called simultaneous equations and the method we can use to solve these type of equations is either Substitution, Elimination and Graphing.
We use substitution here because it is easier.
Equation 1

Equation 2

Lets take equation 1

This is our equation 3 , now put it inside equation 2.

We found the value of y , now to find the value of x insert the value of y in equation 3

Solved ! See the attached image on both the straight line graphs i have attached for better understanding. Where both the lines intersect each other is our value of (x , y) respectively.
In 5 years, the price increased about 30%.
I am not good at perentages, so correct me if I'm wrong. Also this is an estimation, not the exact percentage.
5/8 = .625
531.25 / .625 = 850
850 - 531.25 = $318.75
