Specifically, any multiple of 52 (or 25) and any multiple of 53 (or 125) contribute additional factors of 5. There are 8 multiples of 25 (namely, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200). correction: Specifically, any multiple of 5^2 (or 25) and any multiple of 5^3 (or 125) contribute additional factor...

let's work with 1600 first 1600= 4^2 * 100 1600=4^2 * 4*25 1600=4^3 * 25 since 25 is just above 16 we can say 4^3 * 4^2.1=1600 so, 4^5.1 =1600 now back to the orig: 4^4x=1600 x= 5.1/4 pug x into 2nd equation [4^(x–1)]^2 (4^1/4)^2 4^1/4 is the same as sqrt root of 2= ans =2 since we approximate the a...

ans=D
By knowing BE or DE, we can extrapolate the angle BDE.
Thus we can see what angle ABD is and then angle BAD.

ans=800
60x+40y=P
60(x-10)+40(y+10)=3/4 (P)
60x+40y-200=3/4P
60x+40y=3/4P+200
since 60x+40y=p,
P=3/4P+200
1/4P=200
P=800
