Question

Each week Raisa earns $5.25 for doing chores. After saving money for 12 weeks, Raisa spends $13.45. How much money does Raisa have left?

Answer 1

$49.55

Explanation:

She earns $5.25 every week for 12 weeks, so we multiply her weekly income by 12.

$5.25 * 12 = $63.00

Then she spends $13.45, so we deduct that from her earnings.

$63.00 - $5.25 = $49.55

That shows us that she has $49.55 left.
