Michael bought a $25.00 gift for a friend. After he bought the gift, Michael had $176.89. Write and solve an equation to calculate how much money Michael had before he bought the gift.


A: $176.89 – m = $25.00; $151.89


B: m = $176.89 – $25.00; $151.89


C: m = $176.89 – $25.00; $201.89


D: m – $25.00 = $176.89; $201.89

Answer 1

b: m = $176.89 - $25.00; $151.89

Explanation:

If you do 176.89 - m it doesn't make sense because 176.89 is the money he had after he bought the gift.

Answer 2

pretty sure its D

Explanation:

because M is how much you had to begin with and then you boughts a 25.00 gift and now you have 176.89 and M= 201.89
