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