Answer:

Helen requires 15$ more to buy the three books.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Cost of dictionary = $7

Cost of dinosaur book = $16

Cost of cook book = $17

Helen's allowance = $25

Total cost of three books =


=7 +16+17\\=\$ 40

Extra money required to buy three books =


=40-25\\=\$15

Thus, Helen requires 15$ more to buy the three books.
