We have 15.71 total. Chicken nuggets each cost $1.49. We are ordering 5 orders of chicken nuggets, so we use multiplication. 1.49*5= $7.45. Since we spent 7.45 from 15.71, to find the rest, we subtract. 15.71-7.45 = 8.26
It would be the 1st one ( 12in× 1in/2.5ft) the reason is you want the measurements to match so that way when you solve the equation you are multiply 12 by 2.5 to get the number of inches
