Question

Royce has $15 with him and spends $12 to buy his favorite comics. He has $3 left, which he deposits in the bank. Which number will be entered in Royce's bank account statement? A. -$12 B. -$3 C. +$3 D. +$15

Answer 1

It would be D, since he has 3 dollars left, and he doesn't have to give it away. Hope this helps!! :)

Answer 2

1.) Royce spends $12 out of his $15 to buy his favorite comics. ($15-$12=$3 left)
2.) Now Royce has a number entered into his bank account statement-$3 or D. (This number will be +$3, D, as Royce still has $3 left with him. He doesn't owe any money, so the answer cannot be negative.)
3.) The answer would be D or +$3.
