Sara spent half of her allowance going to the movies. She washed the family car and earned 9 dollars. What is her weekly allowance if she ended with 16 dollars ?

$7, I think. I would not be too sure about it, though.

$7 because if she has $16 by the end of the week and she earned $9 by washing the car, all you would have to do is subtract $9 from $16 and you would get her original allowance
