twenty times a number less than two

multiple - choice question
what type of words and phrases are the following?

• \subtracted from\
• \fewer than\
• \less than\
• \divided into\

turnaround (also known as \switch\ words)
grouping
rewatch

Explanation:

The phrases "subtracted from", "fewer than", "less than", and "divided into" are turnaround (switch) words. In algebraic translation, when we see these phrases, the order of the terms in the mathematical expression is reversed compared to the order in the English phrase. For example, in "twenty times a number less than two" (where "less than" is the turnaround word), the algebraic expression is \(2 - 20y\) instead of \(20y- 2\). Grouping words would be something like "the sum of... and...", "the product of... and..." which are used to group parts of an expression together. But the given phrases here reverse the order of operation elements, so they are turnaround words.
