Answer:
the correct choice is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number. Then the larger number is 8x, and the difference is ...
8x -x = 280
7x = 280 . . . . . simplify
x = 40 . . . . . . divide by 7
The larger number is 8x = 8(40) = 320.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Effectively, we have solved for the multiplier (40) that gives the ratio with 320 on top and a difference between top and bottom of 280:

Answer:
11 is one of the factors! The orange divisor(s) above are the prime factors of the number 990. If we put all of it together we have the factors 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 11 = 990.
Step-by-step explanation:
