Question

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did she have left for gift C?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 19/20 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Sonya had 20 dollars to spend on 3 gifts.

She spent 8 1 4 dollars on gift A and 4 4 5 dollars on gift B.

Gift A + Gift B + Gift C = $20

Gift C = $20 - (Gift A + Gift B)

Gift A = $8 1/4

Gift B = $4 4/5

Hence:

The amount she had left for gift C is :

Gift C = $20 - ($8 1/4 + $ 4 4/5)

Gift C = $20 - $13 1/20

Gift C = $ 6 19/20
