Select the choice that translates the following verbal phrase correctly to an algebraic expression: 8 times the quantity of 5 less than 10

A. 8(10 - 5)

B. (8 • 5) - 10

C. 8(5 - 10)

D. (8 • 10) - 5

A

Step-by-step explanation:

"8 times" = 8 must be alone and not being multiplied or subtracted from anything

"the quantity of" is asking for a number
