A. Write 60 as the sum of two numbers.
B. Write 60 as the product of two numbers.
C. Write 60 as the product of two factors. In youe expression, write one of the factors as a sum of two numbers. Find an equivalent way to write this expression.
A. You basically add two numbers together to get 60. So it's basically __ + __ = 60, and you can put in any two numbers that equal 60 when added.
B. It's almost the same as what I said for the first problem, except it's __ x __ = 60, so you find two numbers that equal 60 when multiplied.
C. For this problem, you take the two numbers you got for problem B, so do __ x __ = 60, but use the method you got for problem A also on one of the factors, so (__ + __) x __ = 60.
When you're done, you should check your work by plugging it into a calculator and see if it equals 60.
So would A be something like 56+4? And B would be 10x6. I believe C would be something like (5+5) x 6 = 60.
Am I correct?
C would be 6(5+5) because of you put "(" by a lonely number it means x
60
A. Sure, 60 can be written as the sum of two numbers. How about 30 + 30? It's like splitting a pizza into two equal delicious slices!
B. 60 as the product of two numbers? Let me get my math clown glasses on. How about 4 multiplied by 15? 4 x 15 = 60. It's like a circus clown juggling four balls while running after 15 runaway ducks!
C. Ah, now we're getting fancy! Let's write 60 as the product of two factors, where one of the factors is a sum of two numbers. How about 6 x (5 + 5)? Simplifying that, we get 6 x 10 = 60. It's like having six clowns cram into a tiny car, and then mysteriously doubling their numbers to ten clowns!
A. To write 60 as the sum of two numbers, you can choose any two numbers that add up to 60. For example, you could write 60 as 30 + 30, or 20 + 40. There are multiple combinations that would work.
B. To write 60 as the product of two numbers, you need to find two numbers whose product is equal to 60. You can start by dividing 60 by various numbers and checking if the quotient is an integer. For example, you would find that 60 can be written as 6 times 10.
C. To write 60 as the product of two factors while expressing one of the factors as a sum of two numbers, you can break down 60 into its factors and express one of them as a sum. Starting with the prime factorization of 60, which is 2^2 * 3 * 5, you could write 60 as (2 * 3) * 10, where the factor 6 is written as the sum of 2 and 4.
An equivalent way to write this expression is 6 * (2 + 4). This shows that 60 can be expressed as the product of two factors, where one factor is the sum of two numbers.
