Answer 1

Given:

David had $350. After shopping, he was left with $235.

Required:

If c represents the amount he spent, write an equation to represent this situation. Then use the equation to find the amount of money David spent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know c is the amount spent

So,

Available amount = Total amount - spent amount

235 = 350 - c

c= 350 - 235

c = 115

Answer:

Hence, David spent $115.
