Question

Which of the answer choices is the correct numerical expression for the situation given below? 10 is multiplied by the sum of 3 and 2. The product is divided by 2, and then 5 is added? 1) ((10 * (3 + 2)) / 2) + 5 2) ((10 * (3 - 2)) / 2) + 5 3) ((10 * (3 * 2)) / 2) - 5 4) ((10 * (3 + 2)) / 2) - 5

Answer 1

1) ((10 * (3 + 2)) / 2) + 5

Explanation:

10 is multiplied by the sum of 3 and 2.

(10*(3+2))

The product is divided by 2,

( (10*(3+2))/2)

and then 5 is added

((10*(3+2))/2) + 5

Solve:

10*5/2 + 5

20/2 + 5

10 + 5 = 15

1) ((10 * (3 + 2)) / 2) + 5

2) ((10 * (3 - 2)) / 2) + 5

3) ((10 * (3 * 2)) / 2) - 5

4) ((10 * (3 + 2)) / 2) - 5
