Answer 1

Hello there!

____________________________________

First, to make things easier, you need to find your "givens" or numbers in the question

$95

$5.75

5 Days

Next, insert your numbers into an equation, to make things easy on yourself. If Kevin earns $95 but spends $5.75 a day, all you have to do is multiply both by 5 since he works 5 days a week.

$95 • 5 = 475

$5.75 • 5 = 28.75

Finally, all you need to do is subtract both of them

475 - 28.75 = 446.25

Therefor, after all spending and earning, Kevin will have 446.25 left
