Question

4 x (5 + 2) which best describes the expression (5 + 2)?

Answer 1

7? I don't really understand the question
5+2=7 
ha ha, I don't know

Answer 2

Hi, I'd be glad to help. 

Always calculate parenthesis first so, (5 + 2 = 7) 

Then do your multiplication 

4 * 7 = 28 

So (28) is your final answer. 

Hope this helps. 
Have a great day!
