If Ana is x years old then 5 times Ana's age three years ago is

  • A.3(x - 5)
  • B.5(x - 3)
  • C.3(x + 5)
  • D.5(x + 3)

Answer: B

Three years ago Ana was \( x - 3 \) years old, and five times that is

\[ 5(x - 3) \]

The subtraction happens inside the bracket, before the multiplication: \( 5x - 3 \) would be five times her present age less three.
