On Monday, Mr, Roberts drove 42 miles, On Tuesday, he drove 5 miles, more than half the distance he drove on Monday, which expression shows how you could find the distance, in miles,Mr, Roberts drove on Tuesday? A (42 - 5)×2 B 42 -(5×2) C (42 ÷ 2) - 5 D (42 ÷ 2 ) + 5

Answer 1

To find the distance Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday, we need to calculate half the distance he drove on Monday (which is 42 miles) and then add 5 miles to that value.

1. Half of the distance driven on Monday is: \( 42 \div 2 \).
2. Then, we add 5 miles to this half distance: \( (42 \div 2) + 5 \).

Thus, the correct expression that shows how to find the distance Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday is:

D: \( (42 ÷ 2) + 5 \).
