Question

Michelle has $80 to buy a new outfit. She found a skirt for $20, a blouse for $25, and a belt for $8. How much does she have left to buy shoes? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Michelle has $27 left to buy shoes.

Step by step explanation:

Michelle spent $20 on a skirt, $25 on a blouse, and $8 on a belt, so her total spending so far is:

$20 + $25 + $8 = $53

She started with $80, so to find out how much she has left to buy shoes, we can subtract her total spending from her original budget:

$80 - $53 = $27

Therefore, Michelle has $27 left to buy shoes.
