Question

Rajan had 30 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. He spent 9 1 4 dollars on gift A and 5 4 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did he have left for gift C?

Answer 1

$15 1/10

Explanation:

Given that :

Total amount to spend = $30

Amount spent on Gift A = $9 1/4

Amount spent on Gift B = $5 4/5

Amount left to spend on gift C ;

$30 - (9 1/4 + 5 4/5)

$30 - (37/4 + 29/5)

$30 - (185 + 116)/20

$30 - 298/20

30/1 - 298/20

$(600 - 298) / 20

$302/20

$15 2/20

= $15 1/10
