Question

Which of the following expressions could you use to find the total number of desks and both medina &

Monroe middle schools?

Answer 1

A. (2×25)×12

Explanation:

We have that for both Medina and Monroe middle schools,

Number of classrooms = 12

Number of desks per classroom = 25

Thus,

The total number of desks for Medina School = 12 × 25

The total number of desks for Monroe School = 12 × 25

So, the total number of desks for both the school = 2 × (12 × 25) = (2 × 12) × 25.

Hence, the expression representing the total number of desks for both schools is (2 × 12) × 25.
