4! = ?
4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
|
4 x 3 |
|
3 x 2 x 1 |
|
5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 |
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.
What is the greatest common factor of 80 and 20?
| 20 | |
| 3 | |
| 15 | |
| 2 |
The factors of 80 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80] and the factors of 20 are [1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20]. They share 6 factors [1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20] making 20 the greatest factor 80 and 20 have in common.
12 members of a bridal party need transported to a wedding reception but there are only 4 2-passenger taxis available to take them. How many will need to find other transportation?
| 4 | |
| 9 | |
| 3 | |
| 5 |
There are 4 2-passenger taxis available so that's 4 x 2 = 8 total seats. There are 12 people needing transportation leaving 12 - 8 = 4 who will have to find other transportation.
What is \( \frac{2}{3} \) + \( \frac{9}{5} \)?
| 1 \( \frac{4}{15} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{2}{7} \) | |
| 2 \( \frac{4}{15} \) | |
| 2\(\frac{7}{15}\) |
To add these fractions, first find the lowest common multiple of their denominators. The first few multiples of 3 are [3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30] and the first few multiples of 5 are [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50]. The first few multiples they share are [15, 30, 45, 60, 75] making 15 the smallest multiple 3 and 5 share.
Next, convert the fractions so each denominator equals the lowest common multiple:
\( \frac{2 x 5}{3 x 5} \) + \( \frac{9 x 3}{5 x 3} \)
\( \frac{10}{15} \) + \( \frac{27}{15} \)
Now, because the fractions share a common denominator, you can add them:
\( \frac{10 + 27}{15} \) = \( \frac{37}{15} \) = 2\(\frac{7}{15}\)
