Answer:

$58

Step-by-step explanation:

$14*2=$28 as her mum gives another dollar for each dollar he earns

$7*2=$14 as her mum gives another dollar for each dollar he earns

then 28 + 14 = 42

100 - 42=$58

Answer:

James needs to earn 78 more dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add up all of the money James has earned, (1 + 7 + 14), it equals 22. If you subtract 22 from 100, it equals 78. Therefore James needs to earn 78 more dollars.
