Answer 1

Manuel now owes $1850.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much Manuel owes now, we need to subtract the amount he paid off from his original debt. Manuel originally owed $2000. Let's say he paid off $150. To find the remaining amount, we subtract $150 from $2000.

Remaining amount = Original debt - Amount paid off

Remaining amount = $2000 - $150

Remaining amount = $1850

Therefore, Manuel now owes $1850.
