Question

Rufus saves $48 a week for 6 weeks. During his 5-day business trip, he plans to spend $32.50 each day for meals. Which expression shows how much money he will have left?

a. (48 ÷ 6 )− (5 · 32.5)

b. (48 · 6) + (5 · 32.5)

c. (48 · 6 )− (5 · 32.5)

d. 48 · 6 · 5 · 32.5

Answer 1

(48•6) - (5•32.5)

Answer 2

c. (48•6) - (5•32.5)
because if it's $48 a week for 6 weeks you multiply then 32.5 dollars per day for five days... so you multiply then subtracting the first total and second total because he's spending it.
