Terry was asked to evaluate%C2%A0 27 . He multiplied 2 times 7 and got the answer 14. Explain why Terry’s answer is incorrect. Then, evaluate%C2%A0 27 .(4 points)
Terry's answer is incorrect because he only multiplied the two digits of 27 together (2 and 7), instead of multiplying the entire number by itself. In order to properly evaluate 27, you need to multiply 27 by itself.
27 x 27 = 729
Therefore, the correct answer is 729.
