Answers to the Math HW

1) 5 + 3 = 8, 9 + (-1)=8

Explanation:

These are a few of the possible answers for number 1. We know that an integer is a counting number that is a whole number. So, in order to answer this question, you need to know what an integer is and you have to know what a sum means. The sum is the answer you get when you add numbers together.

2) It is possible that -5 is larger than -10 even though the absolute value of -10 is larger than that of -5 because -5 is closer to zero and closer to positive numbers of the number line.

From left to right:
3) -40

4) -2

5) 0

6) 108

7) 3

8) 1

9) -14

10) -27

LCM of 4 and 7 is 28.

GCF of 12 and 18 is 6.

Prime factorization 0f 54:
54

2 x 27

9 x 3

3
x 3

= 2 x 3 x 3 x 3

Solve the following proportion:
x = 49
