Question

4. Samantha received $59 for her birthday. She spent $25 on a

charm bracelet. Her brother now has twice as much money as
Samantha. How much money does Samantha's brother have?

Answer 1

The answer will be $68 and Here's Why:

Samantha received $59 for her birthday. That will be the base of the equation. She spent $25 on a charm bracelet so that will be the number being subtracted.

$59 - $25 = $34

We also know that he brother has twice as much money as she does. So that means he has 2x more money than her.

So: $34 x 2 = $68.

So here brother has $68 more than her.
