Simplify. 5(22 - 9 · 2) - 2( 3 · 2 4) 7 <br> a.-99 <br> b.-83 <br> c.-75 <br> d.-71

Not completely sure on the symbols, but I think it is 5 x ( 22 - 9 x 2 ) - 2 ( 3 x 2 x 4 ) x 7 = 136. It doesn't really match the answers, so my advice is that you use a calculator for this one, or as the person/teacher who gave you the problem how to solve it.

5.6 gallons of paint are needed to cover 1,960 square feet.

two gallons are needed for 700, so divide 700 by 2 to get square feet per gallon.

5.6 gallons
