Answer:

$1792

Explanation:

$78 x 28 = 2184

28 x $8 = 224

28 x $6 = 168

168 + 224 = 392

2184 - 392 = $1792

Check Work:

1792 + 392 = 2184

2184 / 78 or 2184 / 28

=78

So, first let’s see how much income she makes in 28 days. To do this we multiply 78$ by 28, which gives us 2184. Now we need to calculate the total of her expenses, how much money she spends. She spends 8 dollars per day at lunch, and 6 dollars per day to and from work. So let’s add 8 plus 6, and we get 14. Now let’s multiply 14 by 28 which gives us 392. Now we subtract 2184 minus 392, and we get 1792. So our answer is 1792$
