Answer:

No they don't have enough money, they need $10.52

Explanation:

So first, you will add 4.25+ 16.00 = $20.25 < This is the amount they have.

Second, they want two water guns so 12.99 x 2 = 25.98 < This is the price for the water guns.

Then, add the price of the water ballons to the guns which is $30.77 < This is the cost for everything they want to buy.

Subtract $30.77 from $20.25 to recieve the answer of $10.52

Hope this helps!
