there are 58 songs on Yasmin's play list. if m represents the number of rock songs, which expression represents the number of other songs?

A. 58+m
B. 58-m
C. 58Xm
D. 58/m

Which answer do you think is right?

I don't understand and no clue..I'm in GATE class everytime.

If you have to miss important math instruction to go to GATE class, I think your teachers and parents have made the wrong choice.

58 = total songs
m = rock songs

58 - m = other songs.

thank you much

The answer would be 58-m. it's very obvious because if you subtract 58-m, you would get the other songs.

To determine the expression that represents the number of other songs on Yasmin's playlist when m represents the number of rock songs, we need to understand what "other songs" means.

Since there are 58 songs on the playlist in total, and m represents the number of rock songs, we can conclude that the remaining songs that are not rock songs are classified as "other songs".

Therefore, the number of other songs can be found by subtracting the number of rock songs (m) from the total number of songs (58).

So, the correct expression that represents the number of other songs is:

B. 58 - m
