18 is NOT a factor of 84 because A.84 is not prime B.18 is not prime C.6 is not a factor of 84 D.9 is not a factor of 84

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you guess? and tell me the reason why you guessed what you guessed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is incorrect, herewego

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because !8 canbe divided by another 2 and 9 making it not prime.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, but that is not what the question asks for.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

explain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd rather CesarLovesNadia works out the problem on their own. If I explain the answer it defeats the purpose of me helping them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought it was A at first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true. i'll keep that in mind.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cesar, why did you think it was A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because like he explained its obviously wont be B anymore & you can just get the square root of 84 which is going to be 9& 6 times 14 is going to be 84

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure the square root of 84 is 9? what is 9 times 9?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh oops no its not lol so it would end up being D right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait so why wouldnt it be A or B again?
