Which problem could be solved with the expression 3(5-2)-1?
choose 1
a.) ralph's problem
b.) stephanie's problem
c.) orlando' problem
kinda need on this

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the problem that could be solved with the expression 3(5-2)-1.

The solution of given expression is

1. Ralph's problem

His 5 toy cars, he gave two to his sister = 5 - 2

After that he found one more toy car = 5-2+1

Then, he decided to go to the store and triple his number of cars, therefore the total number of toys = 3(5-2+1) =12

2. Stephanie's problem

Stephanie had 3 apples. Then, she found 5 more = 3+5

but immediately ate 2 of them = 3+5-2

Several minutes later, she ate 1 more, therefore the total number of apples = 3+5-2-1 = 5

3. Orlando' problem

Orlando had 5 action figures but decided to give 2 of them to his younger brother = 5-2

His parents were so impressed with his kindness that thy tripled the action figures he had left = 3(5-2)

Since he got so many new action figures, then he gave 1 more to his brother, therefore the total number of action figures = 3(5-2)-1 = 8

Orlando' problem could be solved with the expression 3(5-2)-1. Therefore the correct option is C.

good luck on your studies! : )
