The prime factorization of 377 is 13 X 29. Only one of those factors is in the interval 20 < x < 50, namely 29. So 29 people went to the concert and the ticket price was $13.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
