C

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that m represents the cost, the correct answer would be C because you are buying 4 packs of muffins and you are subtracting 2 dollars. This is very hard to explain, it's easier to explain with numbers.

Let's assume that each pack of muffins is 2 dollars. Since we are buying 4 packs, we would multiply the number of packs (4) by the amount each pack costs (2). Then since we have a 2 dollar coupon, we subtract two dollars off of the price, so the equation would be 4(2)-2 where 2 represents m.

It wouldn't make sense to add two dollars because we have a coupon, so we're saving money, not adding money.

and it wouldn't make sense for the coupon to be saving more money by how much the cost of the muffin is, otherwise we would get it for free!!

The only logical answer is C because we are saving money and 4m represents the amount of money we are spending on the muffins.
