Q. There were f frogs in a pond. Then 2 of the frogs hopped away. Choose the expression that shows how many frogs are in the pond now.Choices:(A) f−2(B) 2−f(C) f+2(D) f
Start with f frogs: We start with f frogs in the pond.
ext{2 frogs hop away:}2 frogs hop away from the pond.
Find remaining frogs: To find the remaining number of frogs, we subtract 2 from the initial number f. So, the expression is f−2.
Correct choice: The correct choice that represents the situation is (A) f−2.
