Question

How do you convert the word phrase to symbols. "The product of twenty and eight, increased by ten?"

Answer 1

Expression: `20 \times 8 + 10`

Explanation:

If you mean to say it to an expression, then we know that my product, it would mean to multiply. So we have the product of 20 and 8, which means `20 \times 8`. But the product of this would be increased, or added, by 10. Thus, we have: `20 \times 8 + 10`.

You can put a parenthesis around `20 \times 8`, although the Order of Operations would secure that multiplication would come before addition.
