Let's take a moment to understand the operator \(\square\)
GIVEN: \(\square n=5n\)
This tells us to take the value of n and multiply it by 5.
For example, \(\square 4=5(4)=20\)
And \(\square 11=5(11)=55\)
And \(\square 30=5(30)=150\)
etc
Now let's apply this to the quantities....
Quantity A: \(15 + \square 3 = 15 + 5(3)= 15 + 15=30\)
Quantity B: \(\frac{\square 12}{2}=\frac{5(12)}{2}=\frac{60}{2}=30\)
Answer: C
Cheers,
Brent
