Patrick spent the day at the mall. First, he bought six clocks for $15 each. Later, he found a five dollar bill. After that, he bought one mule for $10. Also, he returned four clocks. Write the total change to Patrick’s funds as an integer.

Patrick is has $5. After he spent $15 on the clocks he had no money in guessing then found the $5 then returned four clocks each clock cost $2.50 so if he returned for of them it would be $10. Patrick then went and bought a mule for $10 leaving him the dollars that he found.
