Answer:
Explanation:
Jacob is trying to solve the given question by adding the numbers in every option given.
Option (A)
4 + 8 = 4 + 6 + 2 = 10 + 2 [Yes]
Therefore, sum of the numbers will be 12.
Option (B)
7 + 7 = 4 + 3 + 7 = 4 + 10 [Yes]
Sum of numbers = 14
Option (C)
9 + 8 = 9 + 2 + 6 [No]
Option (D)
5 + 9 = 5 + 5 + 4
= 10 + 4 [Yes]
Therefore, option (C) will not have the sum = 10 to find the sum.
