Explanation:

The total would equal to $30 when you add up all of the amounts.

Yes, Enrique has enough money to buy one $18 DVD:

If he earns $2 for every 1/4 hours he works, then,

2/4 hours = $4 (1/4+1/4)

1 1/4 hours = $20 (1/4*5)

3/4 hours = $6 (1/4*3)

The total would equal to $30 when you add up all of the amounts.
