Answer 1

20*39 = 780

780+100 = 880

880-314.23-123 = 442.77

442.77/3

$147.59 each brother

Answer 2

First calculation :20 x 39 = $780
then, 780 + 100 = $880
minus with price of the clothes 880 - 314.23 = $565.77
minus the answer with his mom's present price 565.77- 123= 319.77
divide the answer by 3... 319.77/3 = $106.59
final answer =$106.59
