Final answer:

Winn had $54.75 in their wallet. After spending $3.35, they had $51 left.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate how much money Winn had left after spending $3.35, we need to subtract that amount from the initial amount. Winn had $54.75 and spent $3.35, so we subtract $3.35 from $54.75:



$54.75 - $3.35 = $51.40



When we round this amount to the nearest whole number, we get $51. Since $51.40 is closer to $51 than to $52, our estimate will be lower. Therefore, the answer is:



Option A) $51
