<u>My work:</u> This problem can be easily achieved by taking the numbers 735 and 688 and adding them up to the answer of 1,423. You would do these numbers first because they are in parentheses, and any number in parenthese is to be done first! After finished with this you would take 1,423 and add it with 240 to get the answer of 1,663.
No I think it most likely get you to a 1 digit number possibly and its because when you multiply a one digit number by a two digit number it most likely gets you to a three digit number and sometimes two by tow digit numbers gets you to a three digit number sometimes but mostly gets you to a four digit number.
