Dante correctly wrote another expression, 60 − 3t, to find the number of tokens Angelique has now. Use the drop-down menus to explain what each part of Angelique’s and Dante’s expressions mean.
Angelique’s Expression: 3(20 − t)

Dante’s Expression: 60 − 3t

60 − 3t:
Sure! Let’s break down both expressions step by step.
Angelique’s Expression: 3(20 − t)
– 3: This represents the number of groups or sets of tokens Angelique has.
– 20: This is the total number of tokens in each group before any tokens are removed.
– t: This represents the number of tokens that have been taken away from each group.
– 20 − t: This is the remaining number of tokens in each group after removing ‘t’ tokens.
Dante’s Expression: 60 − 3t
– 60: This represents the total number of tokens Angelique started with before any tokens have been removed.
– t: Similar to Angelique’s expression, this represents the number of tokens removed from the total.
– 3t: This is the total number of tokens removed from all groups, where ‘3’ is the number of groups, times ‘t’, the tokens removed from each.
– 60 − 3t: This expresses the total number of tokens Angelique has now after removing ‘3t’ tokens from the original 60.
In summary, both expressions represent the total number of tokens after accounting for removable tokens, but they frame the problem in slightly different ways. Angelique’s expression views it group-wise, while Dante’s is more direct regarding the total tokens.
