Question

Mariah has $92.47 dollars in her bank account. She spends half of it on clothes, and she spends the 1 quarter of the money left. she returns 1/4th of the merchandise she bought. how many money does Mariah have left?

Answer 1

She has $49.13

First you take 1/2 of 92.47 which gives you 46.235. 

Then she spends 1/4 of 46.235 which leaves her with 34.68.

Then you would add up the total amount that she spent which would equal 57.79.

Since she returned 1/4 of the stuff bought you would take 1/4 of the total amount she spent and get 14.45. 

Then you would subtract the total she spent from the amount she had which gives you 34.68.

Lastly, you would add the 14.45 and the 34.68 together for her over all total of $49.13

Answer 2

46.235 but you have to round so 46.24
