Question

Antonio had $450 in his bank account on Monday. On Tuesday he wrote five checks for $24.50 each. On Wednesday he made three deposits of $45 each. How much money was in his account after the checks and deposits cleared? Explain

Answer 1

Antonio ends up with $462.50 after the checks and deposits cleared.

Explanation:

First make an equation for what we know: Antonio started with $450, he made 5 different checks of $24.50 each, and he deposited $45 3 times.

450 - 5(24.5) + 45 (3)

450 - 122.5 + 135

327.5 + 135

$462.50

Antonio ends up with $462.50 after the checks and deposits cleared.
