The problem in the image is as follows:

A bakery has 12 bins of bagels. Each bin is filled with 37 bagels. The task is to find the total number of bagels using different expressions, and the question asks to select all expressions that apply.

### Given:
- 12 bins
- 37 bagels per bin

The multiplication \( 12 \times 37 \) gives the total number of bagels.

### Let's analyze the options:

1. **\( 12 \times 37 \)**:
   - This is correct because it directly multiplies the number of bins by the number of bagels per bin.

2. **\( 12 \times (30 + 7) \)**:
   - This is also correct because \( 37 \) can be broken down into \( 30 + 7 \), and then distributed:
     \[
     12 \times (30 + 7) = (12 \times 30) + (12 \times 7)
     \]
     This follows the distributive property and gives the correct total.

3. **\( (12 \times 30) + (12 \times 7) \)**:
   - This is correct, as it represents the same process of distributing \( 12 \times 37 \) into two separate products.

4. **\( 360 + 91 \)**:
   - This is incorrect. While \( 360 \) is \( 12 \times 30 \) and \( 91 \) is \( 12 \times 7 \), this is not an expression to directly find the number of bagels but rather the result of the distributive multiplication. It doesn't match the form asked for (expressions).

### Correct Answers:
- \( 12 \times 37 \)
- \( 12 \times (30 + 7) \)
- \( (12 \times 30) + (12 \times 7) \)

Would you like more details or have any questions about this? Here are five related questions to expand on this concept:

1. How does the distributive property work in multiplication?
2. Can you break down other two-digit numbers similarly for multiplication?
3. Why is breaking down a number into parts useful for mental math?
4. What happens if you distribute \( 12 \) to other sets of numbers like \( 40 + 5 \)?
5. Can you express \( 12 \times 47 \) similarly?

### Tip:
Always check if you can break down numbers into easier components for quicker calculations using the distributive property.
