Question

Gary had 30 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. He spent 9 1 4 dollars on gift A and 6 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did he have left for gift C?

Answer 1

Answer:

$13.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Amount to spend on gifts = $30

Number of gifts to purchase = 3

Amount spent on gift A = $9 1/4

Amount spent on gift B = $6 4/5

Amount left to spend on gift C:

Total amount - (gift A + gift B)

$30 - ($9 1/4 + 6 4/5)

$30 - (37/4 + 34/5)

$30 - (185 - 136) / 20

$30 - 321 / 20

30 - 16.05

$13.95
