Question

in January, Dawn earns $9.25 allowance. She earns 3 times as much in February. If during March, she earns $5.75 more than she did in February, how much allowance does Dawn earn in March?

Answer 1

Jan: 9.25
Feb: 9.25 x 3 = 27.75
March: 27.75 + 5.75 = 33.50

Dawn earns $33.50

Answer 2

Dawn earns $33.5 in March because $9.25x3=$27.75 and $27.75+$5.75=$33.5.
