Question

1.) Ace wanted to buy a gift for his mother

worth $18.60. He has $7.40 in Savings
and another $6.30 Saved from his
allowance for the past two weeks. How much more
does he need to save this week?

Answer 1

$4.90

Explanation:

He already has $13.70 (7.40+6.30) saved up so you have to subtract that from 18.60 to find the total Ace needs to save up.

18.60-13.70=4.90

To check your answer, you can add 7.40, 6.30, and 4.90 and see if you get a total of 18.60.

Check: 7.40+6.30+4.90=18.60
