Question -Yan is climbing down a ladder. Each time he descends 4 rungs on the ladder, he stops to see how much farther he

has to go. If Yan made 8 stops with no extra steps, which expression best shows another way to write the product of

the number of ladder rungs that Yan climbed?

A. 4+4+4+4

B. 8+8+8+8

C. (-1)(4+4+4+4)

D. (-8)+(-8)+(-8)+(-8)

Why - The answer is B because  if you read the question, it says basically, 4x8 and to solve that the hard way it is 8+8+8+8 meaning 8, 4 times. So the answer is B. YES A IS WRONG!
