1 Assignments for Math 2030 then the hard copy will not be correct whenever your instructor modifies the assignments. exams, but working through the problems is a good way to prepare for the exams. It is also important to know the examples that your instructor covers in class. Section Problems Exponents Simplify the expressions as much as possible leaving the answer free of negative exponents. Find the following greatest common divisors and least common multiples by obtaining the prime factorizations of each number. 6. lcm(504,2079), 7. gcd(504,2079) 8. lcm(301,1849), 9. gcd(301,1849) 10. lcm(1505,18533), 11. gcd(1505,18533) Find an exact simple fraction for each of the following. A simple fraction is in the form where p and q are integers. Write each of the following numbers as sums of powers of 2 using the smallest number of powers of 2 that is possible , Bob needs to get a job real bad since otherwise his wife is going to change the locks to their apartment. Bob tells a potential employer that he is willing to just accept pennies if he will give him a job. His employer agrees to pay him one penny for the first day, 2 pennies for the second day, 4 pennies for the third day, 8 pennies for the fourth day, and so on. Since his employer usually pays his employees about $40 a day his employer agrees to this plan. For how many working days will Bob keep this job? How many days until Bob is making $50000 a day if his employer likes Bob a lot? 17. Find a counterexample to the statement where a and b are positive integers.
