Thank you for reading my answer! Bye!!

For the first question about Lucy's earnings and expenses, the expression that matches the words is option b. (18 + 20) รท 2. This expression represents adding her earnings on Friday and Saturday (18 + 20) and then dividing the total by 2 to account for her spending half of the money.

For the second question about the number of cans of soup on the shelves, the clerk has 12 boxes, each containing 24 cans of soup. To find the total number of cans of soup, you'll need to multiply the number of boxes by the number of cans in each box. Therefore, the correct answer is option d. 12 x 24 = 288. So, your answer is indeed correct.
