I do have a question though. So if I have 4(1+3) Do I say... Four times one plus three OR One plus three times four. How do you write it so the reader knows where the parentheses are. Or does it not really matter?

sammixboo (sammixboo):

4 times one plus three I believe. It gets confusing when you get to the parenthesis

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

How do you read n + 8? 8 added to a number Then 3(n + 8) is: the product of 3, and 8 added to a number.

OpenStudy (dayakar):

three times of eight more than a number

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Notice that I used a comma. the product of 3, and 8 added to a number -----> 3(n + 8) With no comma, it can be ambiguous: the product of 3 and 8 added to a number ------> 3(n + 8) or the product of 3 and 8 added to a number ------> 3*8 + n
