48 is greater than 0, the symbol which replaces ? to make the statement true is; Choice C: >

The left hand side of the expression can be evaluated as follows;

  • 4⋅16−16

  • = 64 -16

  • = 48

The right hand side of the expression can be evaluated as follows;

  • 4⋅[24−2⋅(4+8)]

  • = 4. [24 - 2 (12)]

  • = 4. [24 - 24]

  • = 4. [0]

  • = 0

Consequently, since, 48 is greater than 0, the symbol which replaces ? to make the statement true is; Choice C: >
