A The number of sit-ups is 5 fewer than half the number of push-ups she does. B The number of sit-ups is 5 more than half the number of push-ups she does. The number of sit-ups is 5 fewer than twice the number of push-ups she does. D The number of sit-ups is 5 more than twice the number of push-ups she does.

Sit ups = 2p+5

2p means the twice of push-ups

+5 is 5 more.
