Consider the numbers 14.25 and 0.86. Part A

Which operation would result in the greatest solution, addition or multiplication? Explain why.

Part B

Is there any way to divide these numbers in order to find a greater number than the solutions found in Part A? Explain why or why not.

Answer in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Addition will result in the greatest solution

The reason why multiplication will not result in this case is because 0.86 is less than 1. So the result we will get by multiplying will be less than what we have from addition

Part B

Yes there is

By dividing the first term by the scribe term, we shall get a number that is greater than the result we would have obtained if we added or multiplied

answer:   2 multiplied by x =24
