Simplify \( \frac{24}{56} \).
To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56]. They share 4 factors [1, 2, 4, 8] making 8 their greatest common factor (GCF).
Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:
\( \frac{24}{56} \) = \( \frac{\frac{24}{8}}{\frac{56}{8}} \) = \( \frac{3}{7} \)

If there were a total of 350 raffle tickets sold and you bought 24 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?
You have 24 out of the total of 350 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{24}{350} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{24 \times 100}{350} \) = \( \frac{2400}{350} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.
Find the average of the following numbers: 17, 13, 17, 13.
To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:
\( \frac{17 + 13 + 17 + 13}{4} \) = \( \frac{60}{4} \) = 15
Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?
same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other
Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).
During digestion, the kidneys filter substances from the blood. Which of the following is not filtered by the kidneys?
fats
Chemical waste like excess water, minerals, and salt are filtered from the blood by the kidneys and secreted into the urine. Urine is transported from the kidneys to the bladder through ureters.
The standard unit of energy is the:
Joule
The Joule (J) is the standard unit of energy and has the unit \({kg \times m^2} \over s^2\).
Which of these will have the most impact on the kinetic energy of an object?
its speed
Kinetic energy is the energy of movement and is a function of the mass of an object and its speed: \(KE = {1 \over 2}mv^2\) where m is mass in kilograms, v is speed in meters per second, and KE is in joules. The most impactful quantity to kinetic energy is velocity as an increase in mass increases KE linearly while an increase in speed increases KE exponentially.
How many 8-passenger vans will it take to drive all 97 members of the football team to an away game?
Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:
vans = \( \frac{97}{8} \) = 12\(\frac{1}{8}\)
So, it will take 12 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 13 vans.
