Respuesta :
we are given
20x + 35y =? (? x + 7y)
Let's assume
'a' in first question mark
and
'b' in second question mark
so, we get
[tex] 20x+35y=a(bx+7y) [/tex]
now, we can distribute it
[tex] 20x+35y=abx+7ay [/tex]
now, we can compare both sides
and we get
[tex] 7a=35 [/tex]
[tex] a=5 [/tex]
now, we can find b
[tex] 20=ab [/tex]
[tex] 20=5b [/tex]
[tex] b=4 [/tex]
so, we get
[tex] a=5 [/tex]
[tex] b=4 [/tex]
we can write it as
[tex] 20x+35y=5(4x+7y) [/tex]..............Answer
