Question

Ellie took $200 to spend during summer vacation.She spent $32 a day for 5 days. Then she bought gelato for her and her three freinds for $6 each.How much did she have left at the end of the trip)

Answer 1

Ellie had $200 originally.

She spent $32 a day for 5 days. This means that she spends:

`\Rightarrow32*5=160`

Therefore, she has left:

`\Rightarrow200-160=40`

She bought gelato for her and her three friends for $6 each. This means that she spent on gelato:

`\Rightarrow6*4=24`

Subtracting this from the remaining balance, we have:

`\Rightarrow40-24=16`

At the end of the trip, Ellie has $16 left.
