Answer: The answer to your question is C. (7*5) - (7*3)

Step-by-step explanation: because when you have an expression or equation in parentheses, you apply the distributive property to get rid of the parentheses:

The problem will now look like this:


7(5-3)= (7*5) - (7*3)

And if they asked you for the answer in a whole number, it would be 14 because

7*5=35 and 7*3=21

35-21=14

So, therefore, the expanded form would be (7*5) - (7*3)
