The GCF would be 14a, because 14a x 1 = 14a, and 14a x 2b = 28ab.
Answer:
67 students voted for the eagle
Step-by-step explanation:
The students at Woodward Elementary voted for a school mascot. The falcon won with 5/8 of the votes and the eagle came second with 1/3 of the remaining votes. If 536 students voted for a mascot, how many students voted for the eagle
Total students who voted = 536
Falcon won with 5/8 of the votes
5/8 of 536
=5/8 × 536
= 2,680/8
= 335 votes
Falcons won with 335 votes
Remaining votes = Total votes - falcons votes
= 536 - 335
= 201 votes
There are 201 votes remaining
Eagle came second with 1/3 of the remaining votes
1/3 of the remaining votes
= 1/3 × 201
= 201/3
= 67 votes
67 students voted for the eagle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Letters are variables and those variable can store a number
Ex: x=5 y=2
evaluate : 3x+2y
we know that x is 5, so we know that 3x would be 15
we know that y is 2, so we know that 2x would be 4
then it says to add 3x and 2y, we would add 15 and 4 to get 19
(This is a very simple example, when you get older, the expression would be much more confusing.
Both methods start out with a factor<span> tree. A </span>factor<span> tree is a diagram that is used to break down a number into its </span>factors until<span> all the numbers left are </span>prime. The first way you can use a factor<span> tree to find the </span>factorization of a number is to divide out prime<span> numbers only. Let's </span>factor<span> 24 using this method.</span>
