Question

Mike saves $42 a week for 7 weeks. During his 8-day vacation, he plans to spend $8.25 each day for snacks. Which expression shows how much money he will have left?
(42 ÷ 7) – (8 • 8.25)


(42 • 7) – (8 • 8.25)


(42 • 7) + (8 • 8.25)


42 • 7 • 8 • 8.25

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is:  (42 • 7) – (8 • 8.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike saves $42 in each week.

So, the amount he saves in 7 weeks = $(42 *7)$

He plans to spend $8.25 each day for snacks during his 8-day vacation.

So, the amount he will spent in 8 days = $(8* 8.25)$

Thus, the amount of money he will have left = $(42*7)-(8*8.25)$
