PLS ANSWER BEFORE 2/8!!!

Lorena wanted to buy gum from the store so her parents told her to collect all the change she could find around the house and use that to buy the gum. The
first place Lorena checked was in the couch. She found 4 coins totaling 55 cents.
Then she went into her parents' room, checked on their dresser, and found 6 coins totaling 54 cents. Next, she found 5 coins in the car's cup holders totaling 13 cents. Lorena put all the money together. She put all the quarter in one pile, the dimes in another pile, the nickels in one pile, and the pennies in a fourth pile.
She gave her brother all the nickels she found. Then she went to the store and bought 2 packs of gum. Each pack of gum costs 30 cents. How much money does she have left?

Answer:

Explanation:

She found 55 cents + 54 cents + 54 cents + 13 - 30 - 30 = 176 - 60 = 116


(Explanation) Lorena found 55 cents then she found 54 cents and then she found 54 and then 13, which totals as 176. Then she buys 2 packs of gum costing 30 cents. Which means we have to subtract (-) 60 from 176 which gives you the answer 116, and in us dollars it equals 1 dollar and 16 cents.

(I hope this helps you and i wish you a good day.
