after this i only have 3 more questions
OpenStudy (nikki_skellington):
it is for sure A because there has to be parentheses around 62 - f or you wont be able to solve it correctly

So he has 62 fries....now he gave 11 fries to \(\large{each}\) of his friends.....now the word \(\large{each}\) implies that we multiply the number of his friends by 11.... in which we would have to subtract by 62.....so what would be the answer?

C
OpenStudy (greatlife44):
If each friend got 11 fries
The total number of fries should be 11*f

Incorrect....they have a total of 62 fries so we would minus that with how much fries we gave to each friend which is 11 times f...

D IDK

That would be correct ^^
We would subtract 62 by 11 times f...
\(\Huge{62 fries-11 \times f}\)
