Answer:

We need to just focus on first adding up the two numbers inside of the first parenthesis to see if we get our answer.


4(2.1 + 3.1) - 2(1.4)


4(5.2) - 2(1.4)

This proves that option B is a solution and since we can only choose one option that means that we have our answer.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions
