Write five situations for the following where brackets would be necessary. (a) 7(8-3) (b) (7+2) (10-3)
(a) 7(8 − 3):
7 boxes with (8 − 3) = 5 toys each.
7 rows, each with (8 − 3) = 5 books.
7 trays, each missing 3 of 8 tools.
7 teams, each with (8 − 3) = 5 players.
7 shelves, each with (8 − 3) = 5 items.
(b) (7 + 2)(10 − 3):
(7 + 2) = 9 rows, (10 − 3) = 7 chairs each.
(7 + 2) = 9 pens, each costs (10 − 3) = ?7.
(7 + 2) = 9 fields, (10 − 3) = 7 bags of crops each.
(7 + 2) = 9 students, (10 − 3) = 7 marks each.
(7 + 2) = 9 books, each has (10 − 3) = 7 pages read.
