Final answer:

The expression represents the total value of Jena's bills, with (5 × 4) indicating the value of $5 bills and 'r × 6' likely being a typo meant to signify the number of $5 bills using a variable 'r'. To correctly represent the total value, we would use expressions like s × 5, t × 10, and u × 20 for each bill type.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the given mathematical expression, we can deduce the meaning of certain quantities and variables to understand the total value of Jena's bills. The expression is divided into parts that represent different denominations of currency. Let's examine each part of the expression:

  • The quantity (5 × 4) represents the total value in dollars of Jena's $5 bills where '4' signifies the number of $5 bills she has.
  • The quantity r × 6 does not follow the standard convention of expressing money as it contains a variable 'r'. Assuming it's a typo, if we consider it to be '6r', it would represent the number of $5 bills that Jena has, where 'r' is the number of bills.

If the quantities in the expression were to be written correctly, it might look like this: s × 5 (total value of $5 bills), t × 10 (total value of $10 bills), and u × 20 (total value of $20 bills), where s, t, and u represent the number of $5, $10, and $20 bills, respectively.
