Question

Replace ? with =, >, or < to make the statement true.
2 ∙ 18 – 18 ? 2 ∙ [28 – 3 ∙ (2 + 4)]
A. =
B. <
C. >

Answer 1

I got C.

Answer 2

Let's start on the left side. 2*18 = 36

36-18 = 18. So we know the left side is 18.

Answer 3

The right side we have the (2+4) in the parentheses so we solve that first which equals 6.
now we take -3 and multiply that by 6 and that equals -18.

so on the right we have 2*[28 - 18]
2*[10] = 20
The right side will equal 20.
18 < 20
Which is C. You are correct.
