Answer 1

A) Deposits:  +34.98; +51.02; +51.22
Withdrawals:  -5.23; -5.22; -7.89
B) -7.89, -5.23, -5.22, +34.98, +51.02, +51.22
The smallest amount will be the largest withdrawal, as it takes away from the account; the largest amount will be the largest deposit, as it adds to the account.
C) She would have $216.88.

98 + 34.98 = 132.98 + 51.02 = 184.00 + 51.22 = 235.22 - 7.89 = 227.33 - 5.23 = 222.10 - 5.22 = 216.88
