Question

Julia owes her dad $12. She wants a new blouse that just went on sale, so she borrows $20 from her sister. She pays her father $5 and spends the rest on the blouse. Which statement is true? Julia’s money status is $8 because she started at –$12 and borrowed $20. Julia’s money status is –$7 because she started at –$12, got $20, but only paid $5 of her debt. Julia’s money status is –$27 because she started at –$12, borrowed $20, but paid off $5. Julia’s money status is –$32 because she began at –$12 and borrowed $20.

Answer 1

Answer:

I would say -27? I think that would work out as she still owes her father 7 as well as her sister 20
