Question

Joy Wigens, who works at Putnam Investments, received a check for $2,670. She deposited 1/3 of the check in her Citibank account. How much money does Joy have left after the deposit?

Answer 1

Answer: $1,780

Explanation:

Joy Wigens deposited 1/3 of the check of $2,670 that she received in her Citibank account.

The amount she deposited in her Citibank account was:

= 1/3 * 2,670

= $890

The amount she is left with after this deposit will therefore be:

= Check amount - deposit at Citibank

= 2,670 - 890

= $1,780
