What is the greatest common factor of 60x4y7, 45x5y5, and 75x3y? 5xy 15x3y 45x3y5 75x5y7
2 answers:
Result: 15x3y
Detailed explanation:
We can express the terms using prime factorization. Therefore, we have:
60x4y7= 2×2×3×5×x×x3×y×y6
45x5y5= 3×3×5×x×x4×y×y4
75x3y= 3×5×5×x×x2×y
Shared factors= 3 × 5 × x3 × y
= 15x3y
I believe the greatest common factor is 5xy since each number shares common factors of five, along with the variables xy.

Let's start by calculating the cost of the first 10 boxes, which totals $75, and the next 10 boxes cost $55.
Together, these 20 boxes amount to $130 spent. With $18 remaining, you can purchase 4 more boxes since 18 divided by 4.5 equals 4.
Therefore, the maximum number of boxes you can buy with $148 is 24.
