Answer 1

Answer:

$4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

(had) 8.25 + (deposited) 2.25 = (total) 10.50

10.50 - (withdrew) 5.75 = (total left) 4.75

Answer 2

Answer:

$4.75

Step-by-step explanation:

(Deposit: Add, put in/Withdraw: subtract, take out)

Add $8.25 + $2.25 and you get $10.50. Now subtract that number with $5.75, so $10.50 - $5.75 is a total of $4.75. Mike has $4.75 left in his account.
