SOLUTION:
Step 1 :
Ashley's monthly bank statement showed the following deposits and withdrawals:
- $73.91, - $51.43, $5.67, $27. 39, $89.86
If Ashley's balance in the account was $59.89 at the beginning of the month, what was the account balance at the end of the month?
Step 2 :
Then the account balance at the end of the month=
$ 59. 89 + ( - $73.91 + - $51.43 + $5.67 + $27. 39 + $89.86 )
= $ 59. 89 + ( - $73.91 - $51.43 + $5.67 + $27. 39 + $89.86 )
= $ 59. 89 - $ 2.42
= $ 57.47
CONCLUSION:
Then the account balance at the end of the month = $ 57. 47
