Question

Marlon withdrew $25 from his savings account every week for 5 weeks. Which expression is the best choice to help him determine the total amount of money he withdrew?
(25)(−5) = −125; he withdrew $125
(−25)(5) = −125; he withdrew $125
(−25)(−5) = 125; he withdrew $125
(25)(5) = 125; he withdrew $125

typically we represent withdrawals with negative numbers, since withdrawals subtract money

additionally, to find the total amount of money withdrawn, you'd simply multiply (amount of money) * (number of weeks)

with that in mind, can you narrow it down to the best choice?
