The greatest common factor (GCF) is the greatest factor that divides two integers.

To subtract these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 6 are [6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60] and the first few multiples of 14 are [14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98]. The first few multiples they share are [42, 84] making 42 the smallest multiple 6 and 14 share.

Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:

\( \frac{7 x 7}{6 x 7} \) - \( \frac{9 x 3}{14 x 3} \)

\( \frac{49}{42} \) - \( \frac{27}{42} \)

Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can subtract them:

\( \frac{49 - 27}{42} \) = \( \frac{22}{42} \) = \(\frac{11}{21}\)

guard shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \) = 30 x \( \frac{35}{100} \) = \( \frac{35 x 30}{100} \) = \( \frac{1050}{100} \) = 10 shots

The center makes 30% of his shots so he'll have to take:

shots made = shots taken x \( \frac{\text{% made}}{100} \)
shots taken = \( \frac{\text{shots taken}}{\frac{\text{% made}}{100}} \)

to make as many shots as the guard. Plugging in values for the center gives us:

center shots taken = \( \frac{10}{\frac{30}{100}} \) = 10 x \( \frac{100}{30} \) = \( \frac{10 x 100}{30} \) = \( \frac{1000}{30} \) = 33 shots

to make the same number of shots as the guard and thus score the same number of points.

To fill a 10 gallon tank exactly halfway you'll need 5 gallons of fuel. Each fuel can holds 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) gallons so:

cans = \( \frac{5 \text{ gallons}}{2\frac{1}{2} \text{ gallons}} \) = 2

To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 200 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.2km then add the remaining distances:

total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.2km + 30.7km + 4.0km
total distance = 34.9km
