Question

john spent half of his weekly allowance at the batting cages. to earn more money his parents let him vacuum the house for $6. what is his weekly allowance if he ended up with $20?

Answer 1

$28

Explanation:

First to solve this get the original amount before his parents gave him $6

20-6=14

So he had $14 after spending it at the batting cages.

It is stated he spent half of his money there so multiply 14 by 2

14 x 2=28

So he has a weekly allowance of $28
