Jonah is a baker. Each morning, he makes 60 cupcakes. He gives away 5 and sells the rest. Each morning, he also makes 48 brownies. He gives away 4 and sells the rest. Write an expression that can be use to find how many cupcakes and brownies Jonah sells in 7 days.

Verified Answer :


you could use 7(60-5)+7(48-4)


Answer:

\(7((60-5)+(48-4))\)


Step-by-step explanation:


Cupcakes:

Jonah bakes 60 everyday. So he has 60.

Gives away 5. Now he has \(60-5=55\)

Brownies:

Jonah bakes 48 everyday. So he has 48.

Gives away 4. Now he has \(48-4=44\)


Each day Jonah sells \(55+44=99\) cupcakes and brownies. So, in 7 days, he will sell \(7(99)\) brownies and cupcakes.

The expression to evaluate would be \(7((60-5)+(48-4))\)
