Answer 2

Hey there!

8 * (6 - 5)

= 8(6 - 5)

= 8(6) + 8(-5)

= 48 + (-40)

= 48 - 40

= 8

OR

8 * (6 - 5)

= 8(6 - 5)

= 8(1)

= 8

OR EVEN

8 * (6 - 5)

= (8 * ?) - (8 * ?)

= (8 * 6) - (8 * 5)

= 48 - 40

= 8

Thus, your answer is: (8 * 6) - (8 * 5)

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
