Question

Two friends need $50.00 for a computer game. One friend has saved $13.36 and the other has saved $18.99. About how much more money do they need?

Answer 1

They need $17.65

Step-by-step explanation

First we have to add each friend's savings:

`13.36+18.99=32.35`

Together, they have $32.35 so they don't have enough money for the computer game yet. To find how much more they have to save we have to subtract what they already have from the cost of the game:

`50-32.35=17.65`
