Take note that they spent $18 afterwards having $28 on the card so they're spending money off the card so...

x-18=28

would be the equation for this and to solve do the following.

First add 18 to both sides making the equation.

x=46

Hi Laki092,

Solution:

Find out how much he has in the gift card (g):

18 + 28 = g

18 + 28 = 46
