There are two factories in the town of lemming factory a has 4 times as many workers as factory b. factory a has 1160 workers . how many workers does factors b have
a. 5,800
b.1,450
c. is wrong
d.290

Factory B has 290 workers.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer the question, you can use an equation that represents the statement.

For example, let A be the workers of Factory A and B the workers of Factory B.

You have to write the statement as an equation. For the given statement is known that  Factory A has 4 times as many workers as Factory B. It can be expressed as an equality (because it says "has 4 times as many as")

A = 4B

But A=1160

Replace the value of A in the equation:

1160 = 4B

Now you have to find the value of B. Dividing each side of the equation by 4:

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
