Answer: $15.50

Explanation:

First, we need to find your balanced after writing the check:

$

516.46

$

31.96

=

$

484.50

Now to find out how much you need to deposit we need to determine how much under $500 your bank account balance is. We do this by subtracting your current balance from $500:

$

500.00

$

484.50

=

$

15.50

You need to deposit at least

$

15.50

to avoid being charged a service fee.
