According to the question,

Given expression,

$5\times (3+ 2)$

A. Greg fertilized $3$ lawns in the morning and $2$ lawns in the afternoon. He did this for $5$ days.

$3$ lawns in the morning and $2$ lawns in the afternoon $= 3+2$

Did this for $5$ days $= 5\times ( 3+2)$

• Expression of the problem  $= 5\times ( 3+2)$

                                                       $= 5\times 5\\\\= 25$

• Number of lawns Greg fertilize is equal to $25$

Option (A) is the correct answer.

B. Betty has $5$ students she tutors. She got $3$ additional students. She then advertised and doubled her students. How many students does she have now?

• Expression for the problem $= 2\times ( 5 + 3)$

                                              $= 2\times 8\\\\=16$

• Total Number of Betty's students $=16$

Option (B) is not the correct answer.

C. Allie builds furniture. She built $3$ chairs and sold $2.$ She did this for $5$ days. How many pieces of furniture did she have after the $5$ days?

• Expression for the problem $= 5\times (3-2)$
