Multiply the numbers being added then add the first number. 4X1=4, 4+1=5.
2X5=10, 10+2=12. 11X8=88, 88+8=96. I'm not sure how to get 40, though.
Hope I could help.
If you multiply all the square inches, you would get 15,015
Answer:
x + 5 * 4
In this problem we have to transfer the expression from verbal to mathematical language. Which would be:
x + 5 * 4
"x" represents "a number"
"5 more than a number" is represented by "x + 5"
"the product of" is indicating a multiplication, which is represented by "*"
