Question

Jolie earned $205 for babysitting in one month. She spent d dollars going to a water park with some friends. After going to the water park, Jolie had $160remaining.

Answer 1

You need to find the "difference" to solve for d.

205-160= d
45 = d

Answer 2

205 - d = 160

Add d to both sides of the equation

205 = 160 + d

Subtract 160 from each side

45 = d

Jolie spent $45 at the water park.
