Paul withdrew $17.25 from his savings account every week for 3 weeks. Which expression is the best choice to help him determine the total amount of money he withdrew a. (3)(−17.25) = −51.75; he withdrew $51.75
B. (−3)(17.25) = −51.75; he withdrew $51.75
c. (3)(17.25) = 51.75; he withdrew $51.75
D. (−3)(−17.25) = 51.75; he withdrew $51.75​
It is A because the minus in front of the 17.25 shows that Paul is withdrawing 17.25 dollars every week. Multiplying that with 3 shows the number of times he withdrew money.
