Drag each number and operation to the correct location on the expression. Not all numbers and operations will be used. The teacher wrote the following expression on the board. (8-2) The teacher then told the students to take away 5 from 3 times this value. Complete the new expression.

Answer 1

To complete the new expression based on the teacher's instructions, we first need to evaluate what the initial expression (8 - 2) is equal to:

1. Calculate (8 - 2):

   • 8 - 2 = 6

2. Next, according to the teacher's instruction, we need to take away 5 from 3 times this value:

   • 3 times the value of (8 - 2) is 3 * 6 = 18.
   • Then we take away 5: 18 - 5.

Putting it all together, the completed expression is:

(3 * (8 - 2)) - 5

So, the final expression is:

(3 * 6) - 5 = 18 - 5 = 13.
