Jose has 4 packs of gum and 10 pieces of gum in each pack. Jose owes each of 4 friends $10. Jose spent $4 for each of 10 baseball cards for his collection. Jose drank 4 ounces of juice on each of the previous 10 days.
Put each one in the right group.
4x(-10)=-40

-4x10=-40

4x10=40

-4x(-10)=40

Let's match the mathematical situations with the calculations:

  1. Jose has 4 packs of gum and 10 pieces of gum in each pack.
    Calculation: 4 x 10 = 40

  2. Jose owes each of 4 friends $10.
    Calculation: -4 x 10 = -40 (This indicates Jose owes a total amount.)

  3. Jose spent $4 for each of 10 baseball cards for his collection.
    Calculation: 4 x (-10) = -40 (This indicates expenditure that results in a negative change in his finances.)

  4. Jose drank 4 ounces of juice on each of the previous 10 days.
    Calculation: -4 x (-10) = 40 (This is a total consumption that yields a positive amount.)

Now we can fill in the statements:

  1. Jose has 40 pieces of gum.
  2. Jose owes a total of $40.00.
  3. Jose spent a total of $40.00.
  4. Jose had 40 more ounces of juice ten days ago.

(Note: In the third statement, ensure you format the total amount with two decimal places if required, as in "$40.00.")
