Well, ithe measure is 8, or u have to use examples to solve
An easy way to do this is to do trial and error.
All possible places to put the bracket:
a) (25 - 8) - 2 = 19 But since BEDMAS goes from left to right with Addition and Subtraction, the equation is unaffected.
b) 25 - (8 - 2) = 19
25 - 6 = 19
Therefore b) is correct.

Define jam and bread mix
------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of jar of jam be x
Let the number of packages of bread mix be y
------------------------------------------------------
Form equations and solve
------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 8 --------------------- (1)
6x + 5y = 45 ---------------- (2)
------------------------------------------------------
Rewrite equation to make x the subject
------------------------------------------------------
x+ y = 8
x = 8 - y ----------------------------(1a)
------------------------------------------------------
Substitute (1a) into (2)
------------------------------------------------------
6(8 - y) + 5y = 45
48 - 6y + 5y = 45
y = 48 - 45
y = 3
------------------------------------------------------
Substitute y = 3 into (1) to find x
------------------------------------------------------
x + 3 = 8
x = 8 - 3
x = 5
------------------------------------------------------
Find jam and bread mix
------------------------------------------------------
Jars of Jam = x = 5
Packages of bread mix = y = 3
------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Jam = 5 ; bread mix = 3
