Well, it depends, there may be multiple common factors, if it's the greatest common factor, then there is only one. The way to do this is to list all the factors of each number.
So Factors of
18: 1,2,3,6,9,18
27: 1,3,9,27
Common Factors : 1, 3, 9
Greatest Common Factor: 9
I think it’s 22.... I just plugged five into the equation
Answer: B) False
A counter-example would be the cubic polynomial y = x^3 which doesn't have a max or a min. The graph stretches forever in both directions (up and down) indicating that the range is the set of all real numbers.
1 cartons of juice = $4.20
3 single cartons = 4.20 * 3 = $12.60
1 pack = $9.45
He saved 12.60 - 9.45 = $3.15
So, he saved $3.15, compared to the total ($12.60)
To calculate the percentage, we will do a proportion:
3.15 (money saved) : 12.60 (total of 3 single cartons) = x (how much percentage) : 100 (total)
3.15 : 12.6 = x : 100
To calculate x, we will moltiplicate the ends (where we have known numbers) than divide all per 12.6
So
x = (3.15 * 100) / 12.60 = 315 / 12.6 = 25
So the percentage saving is 25%
