Question

Andre received and spent money in the following ways last month. For each example, write a positive or negative number to represent the change in money from his perspective.

His uncle gave him $25 as a present.
He earned $18 dollars tutoring.
He spent $10 on a book.

Answer 1

+25;+18;-10

Explanation:

Ok so let's break down the scenario step by step:

• His uncle gave him $25 so that means it's positive so +25
• Now he earned $18 so that means it is also positive so +18
• And now he spent $10 which means it is negative so - 10

(And of you want to find out the amount left with him,

(25+18)-10

=43-10

=$33)

Hope this helps :)
