Answer:

$0.71

Explanation:

make $1.00 "100"* and $0.29 "29"* and subtract 100 and 29 to get "71" then turn the "71" into $0.71**

* this is done by making it a percentage by moving two units to the right

** this is done by making it a decimal by moving to units to the left

Answer:

71 cents

Step-by-step explanation: Well it would be $1.00 minus the 29 cents she just got So 100 minus 29 is 71 it’s easy to do it in your head just think of 100 minus 30 and it’s 70 then subtract 1 from 30 and add it to the 70
