Answer:

B) ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 ) - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given information

Alena - has a total of 4 packs of gum, with 6 pieces each

          - so she has a total of  4 * 6 = 24

Hugh - has a total of 3 packs of gum, with 5 pieces each

         - so he has a total of 3 * 5 = 15

Add the two of them up to find the total amount of gum they have

Alena + Hugh

= ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 )

They have 19 pieces left

So the total amount they have, minus 19 will yield the amount they chewed.

Hence:

Alena + Hugh -19

= ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 ) - 19

That is option B
