Question

On Tuesday you use your debit card for 3 separate transactions, $5 each, and pay 2 ills for $20 each from your checking account. If you had a starting balance of $50, what is the ending balance in your checking account?

Answer 1

Answer: -5

Step-by-step explanation:

You start with 50.

Then subtract the 3 transactions: 50-(3×5)=50-15=35

Then you subtract the 2 ills: 35-(2×20)=35-40=-5

And that's how get the answer!
