Question

Jessie had 30 dollars to spend on 3 gifts. She spent 9 9 10 dollars on gift A and 3 3 5 dollars on gift B. How much money did she have left for gift C?

Answer 1

Jessie has $16.75 left to spend on gift C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jessie started with $30 to spend on three gifts. She spent $9.90 on gift A and $3.35 on gift B. To find out how much money she has left for gift C, we need to subtract the amount she spent on gifts A and B from the original $30.

First, let's add the costs of gift A and B together:

• Cost of gift A: $9.90
• Cost of gift B: $3.35

Total spent on gifts A and B: $9.90 + $3.35 = $13.25

Now, we subtract the total spent on gifts A and B from the original budget:

Money left for gift C: $30.00 - $13.25 = $16.75

Therefore, Jessie has $16.75 left to spend on gift C.

Answer 2

$16.50

================

To find out how much money Jessie had left for gift C, we need to subtract the amounts she spent on gifts A and B from her initial amount of $30.00.

Gift A:

• $9 9/10 = $(9 + 9/10) = $9.90

Gift B:

• $3 3/5 = $(3 + 3/5) = $(3 + 6/10) = $3.60

Total spent on gifts A and B:

• $9.90 + $3.60 = $13.50

Money left for gift C:

• $30.00 - $13.50 = $16.50

Therefore, Jessie had $16.50 left to spend on gift C.
