At the party, the cake is cut into quarters (fourths). twelve candles are put on the cake. greedy greg eats three-quarters of the cake. how many candles does he get?

a.3
b.4
c.6
d.9

So the cake is cut into quarters (4ths)so there are 4 pieces12/4 = 3...3 candles per quarter.

Greedy Greg eats 3/4 of the cakeso he eats 3 of the pieces...and if there are 3 candles per piece...then he gets 3 * 3 = 9 candles <==

thats if the candles are spread out evenly and not just put in one corner of the cake...lol

It meand 4 ytjings so with that thatameksbitnhoe eve rnuch it is

a - base

b - exponent

so,

the base is 8the exponent is 3the exponent tells you to multiply 8 together three timesthe expanded form is 8*8*8
