Question

Mel had $35 and withdrew $200 from his bank account. He bought a pair of pants for $34.00, 2 shirts for $16.00 each, and 2 pairs of shoes for $24.00 each. Give the final expression, and determine how much money Mel had at the end of the shopping day.

Answer 1

$34.00 - pants.
$16.00 ×2 = $32.00 - shirts.
$24.00×2= $48.00 - shoes.

$34.00+ $32.00 + $48.00 = $114.00

$200.00 - $114.00 = $86.

but if you count $35 then he had , $121

Answer 2

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Mel had $35 and withdrew $200 from his bank account.

So, total money Med had=$(35+200)

                                         = $235

He bought a pair of pants for $34.00,

2 shirts for $16.00 each, and 2 pairs of shoes for $24.00 each.

Cost of 1 shirt=$16

Cost of 2 shirt=$32

Cost of 1 pair of shoe=$24

Cost of 2 pair of shoes=$48

Total money Med spent=$(34+32+48)

                                       =$114

Total money Med is left with=Money he had-Money he spent

                                              =$(235-114)

                                              = $121

Hence, money Mel had at the end of the shopping day is:

$121
