The number of students taking German or Spanish is 6 + 9 = 15. Of that group of 15, 5 are taking both languages so they've been counted twice (once in the German group and once in the Spanish group). Subtracting them out leaves 15 - 5 = 10 who are taking at least one language. 20 - 10 = 10 students who are not taking either language.

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

vans = \( \frac{56}{16} \) = 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)

So, it will take 3 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 4 vans.

The least common multiple (LCM) is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of two or more integers.

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

8\( \sqrt{50} \) + 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
8\( \sqrt{25 \times 2} \) + 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
8\( \sqrt{5^2 \times 2} \) + 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
(8)(5)\( \sqrt{2} \) + 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
40\( \sqrt{2} \) + 8\( \sqrt{2} \)

Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:

A number in scientific notation has the format 0.000 x 10^exponent. To convert to scientific notation, move the decimal point to the right or the left until the number is a decimal between 1 and 10. The exponent of the 10 is the number of places you moved the decimal point and is positive if you moved the decimal point to the left and negative if you moved it to the right:

7,056,000 in scientific notation is 7.056 x 10⁶
