Answer:

Explanation:

120+72.56=192.56

we know that you already paid 120 so what ever bill you received is an addition to the 120 so just add the bill you received and the 120 and that was the original bill.

Answer:

The original bill was $192.56

Explanation:

You received a bill for = $72.56

You prepaid on a budget plan for = $120.00 per month

You have already paid $120.00 for the month, but you received a bill of $72.56.

After the payment of $120 you still have to pay $72.56, this means you have to add $72.56 to $120.

Let the original bill be x

x = 120.00 + 72.56

x = 192.56

The original bill was $192.56
