Consuela wrote the expression 2×(31+47). She states that the expression is a product and that the expression (31+47) is a factor. Marcus states that the expression (31+47) is a sum of two terms. Who is correct? Explain.

Since two terms add up to make a sum and two factors multiply to make a product, both of them are correct.
