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

If 68% of the town's 19,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:

(\( \frac{68}{100} \)) x 19,000 = \( \frac{1,292,000}{100} \) = 12,920

The mayor got 73% of the votes cast which is:

(\( \frac{73}{100} \)) x 12,920 = \( \frac{943,160}{100} \) = 9,432 votes.

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{33}{14} \) = 2\(\frac{5}{14}\)

So, it will take 2 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 3 vans.

A factorial has the form n! and is the product of the integer (n) and all the positive integers below it. For example, 5! = 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 120.

To subtract these radicals together their radicands must be the same:

9\( \sqrt{20} \) - 9\( \sqrt{5} \)
9\( \sqrt{4 \times 5} \) - 9\( \sqrt{5} \)
9\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 5} \) - 9\( \sqrt{5} \)
(9)(2)\( \sqrt{5} \) - 9\( \sqrt{5} \)
18\( \sqrt{5} \) - 9\( \sqrt{5} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can subtract them:
