The expression \( 5 \times (8 + 7) \) represents a situation where a quantity (the sum of 8 and 7) is multiplied by a factor (5).
The correct situation that this expression could represent is:
**Maria solves 8 addition and 7 subtraction problems each day for 5 days. What is the total number of problems that Maria solved?**
In this case, \( 8 + 7 \) gives the total number of problems solved each day (15 problems), and multiplying by 5 gives the total number of problems solved over 5 days.
