I think it's 14. What I did was subtract 9 from 16, which got me to 7. Since he spent half of his money, I multiplied 7 by 2 which got me 14. Do this in reverse- He had 14 dollars as his allowance, spent half of it-7, earned 9$, which is 16$.
Answer:
Dan's week;y allowance is $14 dollars.
Explanation:
So he spends half of his allowance and then earns 9 dollars and is ended up wit $16. To find out what his allowance is, subtract the money he earned ($9) from 16. You get $7 dollars but in the problem, it says that he spent half of it already so you multiply 7 by 2 to get the full amount and that is Dan's allowance.
Hope it helps!
