Question

Danielle wanted to purchase a blouse with the $100 she received on her birthday. She already spent $37 on CDs. The blouse she wants costs $53. Which operation would she use to make sure she had enough money to buy the blouse? A) add B) subtract C) multiply D) divide

Answer 1

Answer:

B)subtract

Step-by-step explanation:

Danielle would have to use the subtract operation to find out if she had enough money to buy the blouse after buying the CDs.

It would turn out like this:

$100 - $37 = $63

Now since Danielle knows that she has $63 dollars left, she has more than enough to buy the $53 blouse.
