Question

5 times the sum of p and r A.5(p+r) B.5p+r C.5pr D.5+p+r

Answer 1

Answer:

Option: A is the correct answer.

The mathematical representation of the given statement is:

                       $5(p+r)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to represent the given expression in words to numerical expression.

The statement is:

5 times the sum of p and r

The sum of p and r is:  (p+r)

and now 5 times the sum of p and r i.e. 5 is multiplied to the sum of p and r.

i.e.

$5(p+r)$

Answer 2

The answer would be 5(p+r) because p+r means the sum of those two variables and 5 would times the numbers in the parenthesis.
