Use the divisibility test to check if 621 is divisible by 9
6 + 2 + 1 = 9
9 is divisible by 9. therefore, 621 is divisible by 9.
300
Expand and simplify:
2(x - 3y)+5x
2(x - 3y)+5x = 2x - 6y +5x = 7x - 6y
300
Find the size of angle AOB
AOB = 45 +50 = 95 (alternate angles)
300
Evaluate: 7/8 - 3/4
7/8 - 3/4 = (7 -6)/8 = 1/8

Evaluate using the order of operations:
15 ÷ (-2 +(-3)) + (-17) =
15 ÷ (-5) - 17
= -3 - 17
= -20

Factorise 7a2 +14ab
7a2 +14ab = 7a (a +2b)
400
Find the value of a
a = 152 - 85 = 67 (exterior angle = sum of interior opposite angles)
400
Evaluate: 5/3 ÷ (-1/3)
5/3 ÷ (-1/3) = 5/3 × (-3/1) = -15/3 = -5

Let a = -2, b - 3 and c = -5 and evaluate:
a3 - bc
(-2)3 - (-3 x -5) = -8 - 15 = -23
500
Simplify: (6x)/5 xx 15/(2x^2)
(6x)/5 xx 15/(2x^2) = 9/x
500
Find the value of a:
Octagon - 8 sides
180(n - 2) = 180 (8-2)
= 180 x 6
= 1080
Total sum of angles = 2a x 8 = 16a
16a = 1080
a = 67.5
