Final answer:

After purchasing movie tickets for all students at $6 each, $19 will be left from the initial $247 budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how much money will be left after purchasing movie tickets for 38 students for $6 each with a total budget of $247.

Here is the step-by-step way to find the remaining amount:

  1. Multiply the number of students by the price per ticket to find the total cost for all students.
    38 students * $6/ticket = $228
  2. Subtract the total cost for all students from the total money saved to find the remaining amount.
    $247 - $228 = $19

After purchasing tickets for all students, they will have $19 left.
