A factor is a positive integer that divides evenly into a given number. For example, the factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8.

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $700
i = 0.06 x $700

No payments were made so the total amount due is the original amount + the accumulated interest:

By buying two shirts, Charlie will save $49 x \( \frac{5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$49 x 5}{100} \) = \( \frac{$245}{100} \) = $2.45 on the second shirt.

So, his total cost will be
$49.00 + ($49.00 - $2.45)
$49.00 + $46.55
$95.55

If 81% of the town's 42,000 voters cast ballots the number of votes cast is:

(\( \frac{81}{100} \)) x 42,000 = \( \frac{3,402,000}{100} \) = 34,020

The mayor got 62% of the votes cast which is:

(\( \frac{62}{100} \)) x 34,020 = \( \frac{2,109,240}{100} \) = 21,092 votes.

To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so subtract the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:

6c⁵ - 3c⁵
(6 - 3)c⁵
3c⁵
