    Answer: 12

    Factors of 36: 1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,36; factors of 48 include 12; GCF = 12.

  5. If the ratio of boys to girls in a class is 3:5 and there are 24 boys, how many students are in the class?

    3 parts = 24, so 1 part = 8; total = 8 parts = 64.

  6. Which expression equals (2x + 3)²?

    Answer: 4x² + 12x + 9

    (2x + 3)² = (2x)² + 2(2x)(3) + 3² = 4x² + 12x + 9.

  7. What is the surface area of a cube with side length 4?

    Answer: 96
