10+5+5=20
25-20=5
She will be able to put five dollars aside for each week

Answer

Elisa have $5 available to put aside for savings each week .

Explanation :

As given

If elisa gets an allowance of $25 per week and spends $10 of it on food and drink, $5 on entertainment and $5 on miscellaneous things .

Elisa saving each week = Allowance per week - Spends on food - Spend on drink - Spends on entertainment - Spends on miscellaneous things .

Putting the values in the above

Elisa saving each week = $25 - $10 - $5 - $5

Elisa saving each week = $25 - $20

= $ 5

Therefore Elisa have $5 available to put aside for savings each week .
