Explanation:

Enrico wrote only four checks last month

1. $173.75 2. $173.84 3. $182.75 4. $182.84

According to his check register, his balance is $893.48, but the bank statement he just received says his balance is $1076.32.

This shows that one of the 4 checks has not cleared.

To find out which check has not cleared we calculate the difference between register's balance and bank statement's balance

= 1076.32 - 893.48 = $182.84

The check for $182.84 has not yet cleared.
