Algebra.Com's Answer #832965 by greenestamps(13203) You can put this solution on YOUR website! \n" ); document.write( "For this one, you definitely want to use an online calculator to find the prime factorization... unless you have nothing better to do with your time. \n" ); document.write( "454425283 = (13^3)(17^1)(23^3) \n" ); document.write( "You could use the online calculator again to find the prime factorizations of the other two numbers. But you don't have to, because you already know that \n" ); document.write( "(a^3)(b^3)(c) = (13^3)(17)(23^3), \n" ); document.write( "so you know that c is 17 and a and b are, in some order, 13 and 23. And since you are only asked to find the sum a+b+c, you have all the information you need to do that. \n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: a+b+c = 13+17+23 = 53 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
