Explanation:

Answer 2

I can’t see the “students work”. But the answer would be 250 words in 5 minutes.
Here’s how you would set up the equation:
25x(5*2)=
So your first step would be to multiply 5 and two because they’re in parenthesis, which would be 10.
So now you have:
25x10
25 times 10 is 250.
Hope that makes sense and helps! :)
