Question

Alan has to pay Robin $48, but he has only $36 with him. Alan overdraws the remaining amount from the bank to pay Robin. After paying Robin, what will Alan's account balance be?

Answer 1

-12 I think. I hope this helps.

Answer 2

$-12

Explanation:

First, we subtract to see how much money Alan still owed.

48 - 36 = 12

Next, we subtract this number to Alan's account balance because this is the amount of money he needs to borrow from the bank, and which we know to be 0.

0 - 12 = -12

Alan's account balance after paying Robin will be $-12
