The mathematical expression 150 - 137 = - 13 pounds is the most appropriate because it includes all the data necessary to express the weight loss over 5 weeks.

To know the weight lost it is necessary to do the following mathematical operations:

1. Subtract the starting weight from the ending weight.

  • 150 - 137 = -13

The -13 means the weight lost during the first 5 weeks of going to the gym.

Note: Neither option is correct. The correct answer would be 150 - 137 = - 13 pounds; A cweight change is negative because it decreases weight.

-BARSIC- [3]

I think the correct question is

Charlie is eating five cakes but there were two missing cake at her grandma's house how many cakes did she have in total?

Answer:

The answer is 5 cakes

Explanation:

Charlie is eating five cakes so we're certain he has five cakes.

If there were two missing cakes at her grandma's place, we can't with all certainty say that Charlie took those cakes from her grandma's place.
