Question

Karita had $138.72 in her checking account. She wrote checks for $45.23 and $18.00. Then she made a deposit of $75.85 into her acount. Whats the best estimate for how much money is in Karita's account now?

Answer 1

The complete answer is 151.34 because you take the checks add them together subtract it from the amount in the bank then add 75 hence the reason you get 151.34

Answer 2

138.72 - 45.23 - 18
These are the check costs that subtracted from her bank account
75.49 is what you get
A deposit is when you add money to your account, so, you add 75.85
75.49 + 75.85 = $151.34
