Answer: 56-(7+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the amount of muffins left over by adding up the amount of muffins that were eaten and subtracting them from the original amount of blueberry muffins, so the answer is 56-(7+5).

(7+5 is in parentheses because if not, you would have 56-7+5 and get 54).
