2
This means a number equals the same as 3 numbers added, for this case...
- Assign a value to P.
- Assign values that add up to P.
- Simplify and factorize the expression.
[tex]P = 6[/tex]
[tex]q = 2[/tex]
[tex]r = 2[/tex]
[tex]s = 2[/tex]
[tex]2 + 2 + 2 = 6[/tex]
Factorized...
[tex]P = (qr) + s[/tex]
[tex]2 * 3[/tex]
[tex]4 + 2[/tex] same as qr + 8
6 in its simplest form is 2
Therefore, the answer is 2. Result may vary based on value assignments.
