Comparing Numerical Expressions

The video tutorial explains how to compare numerical expressions without evaluating them. It provides examples where expressions are compared based on multiplication and addition differences. The lesson concludes with a summary of interpreting and comparing expressions.

Why is the expression on the left larger in the first example?

• It has a higher base number.

• It is multiplied by 2.

• It is divided by 2.

• It is subtracted by 2.

In the second example, what makes the expression on the left larger?

• It divides by 96 instead of 95.

• It multiplies by 96 instead of 95.

• It subtracts 96 instead of 95.

• It adds 96 instead of 95.

What is the main difference between the two expressions in the final example?

• One divides by 3, the other by 5.

• One adds 3, the other adds 5.

• One multiplies by 3, the other by 5.

• One uses addition, the other uses subtraction.

How does the multiplier affect the expression in the final example?

• It decreases the value.

• It reverses the value.

• It has no effect.

• It increases the value.

What is the key takeaway from the lesson on comparing expressions?

• Ignore multipliers.

• Focus only on addition.

• Look for differences in operations.

• Always evaluate expressions first.
