Answer 1

Problem 1 has a greater answer.

Explanation:

Solve problem 1 using the order of operatiobs PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, multiplication/division, and addition/subtraction):

Multiplication/division depends from left to right of the expression, the same goes to addition/subtraction.

(2 + 3) (5 + 5)

= (5)(10)

= 50

SOLVE problem 2 using PEMDAS:

2 + 3 x 5 + 5

= 2 + 15 + 5

= 17 + 5

= 22

Answer 1 (50) compared to Answer 2 (22):

50 > 22

HOPE THIS HELPS!
