Answer:

$746 was spent

Explanation:

It is $746 because you have $723 to begin with, then you subtract all of $723 in order to get a balance of $0. Then in order for you to get a balance of -$23 then you have to spend an extra 23. Then to find the total you add the $723 with the extra $23 to get a total of $746 spent
