Question

Ralph says he can rewrite (4+5)+21 as 9+21. Do you agree ?why or why not?​

Answer 1

I agree because parentheses always go first and 4+5 equals 9 so in conclusion ralph is correct and the answer would be 30

Answer 2

I agree because 4+5 is the same as 9 but without parentheses.

Hope this helps! Stay Safe!
