Jessica is planting a garden, and has 968 seedlings in total. The seedlings are planted across 5 square areas: 4 large squares and 1 small square.
The small square has 128 seedlings in it, and an equal number of seedlings are in each large square.
An expression that can be used to calculate the number of seedlings planted in a large square is:
(968 - 128) ÷ 4
(968 - 128) × 4
968 × 4 - 128
968 ÷ 4 - 128

Answer

Correct Expression: (968 - 128) ÷ 4

Explanation: First, subtract the seedlings in the small square (128) from the total seedlings (968) to find the number of seedlings in the large squares. Then, divide the result by 4 to find the number of seedlings in each large square.
