Paul has $3.69. His sister gives him
another $5.25, and he goes out and
buys a CD single for $3.99. How
much does he have left?

Answer 1

$4.95

Explanation:

3.69+5.25= 8.94

8.94-3.99=4.95

Answer 2

$4.95

Explanation:

Paul originally has $3.69.

His sister gives him $5.25.

$3.69 + $5.25 = $8.94

The CD single cost him $3.99

$8.94 - $3.99 = $4.95

Therefore, he has four dollars and 95 cents ($4.95) left.
