Question

Rewrite the following sentences or phrases on a separate sheet of paper to make them more direct, more readable, or less wordy. Remove one match from the box. Close the box. Strike the match on the rough surface. Do not touch the flame. Do not touch the head of the match. Keep away from children.​

Answer 1

"Strike matches on rough surface found on the outside of the box. Do not touch flame, the head of the match, and please keep away from children"

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two sentences feel like common sense, so I would not include them. The middle sentence is descriptive and I would keep it. The last three sentences can be combined to make the sentence less wordy and read easier. Hope that helps somewhat!
