Question

PLEASE HELP!!

Answer 1

Okay, so Angelo had a dollars and spent 1/3 of that. So he spent 1/3a

Then, the amount he has left can be denoted as: (a - 1/3a)

Jimmy had j dollars and spent 1/2 of it:

So the amount he has left can be denoted as (j - 1/2j)

Since jimmy had more money left, you would subtract the amount angelo has from the amount that jimmy has left.

So: (j - 1/2j) - (a - 1/3a).
