Answer: 3(x+4)=x+18
Step-by-step explanation: Break down the problem. It says three times the sum of a number and 4. You have to add the number and 4 first. Since you're multiplying by 3, put the sum of a number and 4 in parentheses. This equals the same as eighteen more than the number. It set up how it sounds. Add 18 to the number.
First you multiply 3 by 2.5 by 5 which should give you 37.5. For the other one you do the same but you multiply 4 by 3.5 by 4.5, it would be 63.So the second one has more volume
