So if Miguel makes 21 dollars for five days that would give him 105 dollars. Since he spent 35 dollars a day, he would have spend 140 dollars.
Miguel is 35 dollars in debt.

Answer:

Miguel is at a loss of $35.

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Money spend by Miguel on each day = $35

Total numbers of days he spent money = 4

Total money spend =


\text{Money spent on each day}* \text{Number of days money spent} = 35* 4 = \$140

Money earned by Miguel on each day = $21

Total numbers of days he earned money = 5

Total money earned by Miguel =


\text{Money earned on each day}* \text{Number of days money earned} = 21* 5 = \$105

Money left with Miguel =


\text{Money earned} - \text{Money spent} = 105 - 140 = \$(-35)

Thus, Miguel is at a loss of $35.
