Your Math class has 32 students. You would like to treat the class to cookies. You would like each person to have 5 cookies. Which expression would be a quick way to figure out how many cookies you would need to bake?

Question

anonymous · Answer

5(32 + 2)?

anonymous · Answer

why the +2?

anonymous · Answer

the question is asking me to find the  distributive property

anonymous · Answer

Well I don't see where +2 is falling into that anywhere. All I see is 32 students times x cookies 32x, where x=5 or 32*5

anonymous · Answer

its a solve scenario question  those are  the  choices   5(32 + 2)      5(30 + 2)       5(32 − 2)   5(30 − 2)

anonymous · Answer

Oh, now it makes sense with the choices. 

So I'm still right, it's just expanded. 
You want to find the solution that equals 5*32. So since the 5 is given in each of your choices, which of the choices equals 32 otherwise?
