Answer: $70.65

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Mica has $22.50 in her bank account and then she goes to the market to get groceries for the week and ends up spending more than planned. She later checks her account and found out that she now has a balance of $-48.15.

To get the amount of money that Mica spent at the market, we subtract her balance from the opening balance she had in her bank account. This will be:

= $22.50 - (-$48.15)

= $22.50 + $48.15

= $70.65

Mics spent $70.65 at the market.
