Question

Carmen borrowed money from her sister. Each month she makes four payments , with an average payment of no more than $ 200 . This month she has already paid her sister $ 225 , $245 , and $ 235 What is the maximum amount she can pay for the fourth payment ?

Answer 1

$95

Explanation:

We are told that Carmen makes a monthly payment of no more than 200 dollars. We then see her going above the 200 dollars so we look to the tens and ones place. We see that we now have 25, 45, and 35 dollars. Add them up and you get 105 dollars. 200-105=95 so your awnser is $95.
