It looks like B?

daniellelovee · Answer

I would say is A because 2.50+1.80 are the numbers that are being multiplied by g and then the delivery fee is not multiply by anything is just added to the amount so 5 is the total amount of fee

but tell me why you thought it was B

anonymous · Answer

When I was younger I'd always suck at math word problems but I'd just put add them together and since we don't know the amount of people, G would be guests, so the total for the food, and then add the guests

But I get what you're saying

I put up the new question :) I think I already answered it correctly but of course I might be wrong haha
