Question

Myra saved $15 a month for 18 months. She bought a book for $46.50 and a tennis racquet for $129.95. How much does she have left?

Answer 1

Myra saved $ 15 per month for 18 months...so she saved (15 * 18) = $ 270.

270 - (46.50 + 129.95) =
270 - 176.45 = 
93.55 <=== what she had left

Answer 2

Answer:

Amount left with Myra is $93.55

Step-by-step explanation:

Myra saved money $15 a month for 18 months.

So total money saved = Number of months × amount saved in a month

                                    = 18 × 15 = $270

Now it has been given that she bought a book for $46.50 and a tennis for $129.95.

It means Myra has spent total amount = 46.50 + 129.95 = $176.45

Now remaining amount with her = Total amount saved - Total amount spent

                                                      = 270 - 176.45 = $93.55

Therefore the amount left with Myra is $93.55
