Answer 1

Yes Estaban has enough money to buy everything

Explanation:

Estaban has $20 from his allowance

He wishes to buy a comic book of $4.25, a cereal bar of $0.89 and a small remote control of $10.99

The total expense is

= $4.25 +$0.89 + $10.99

= $16.13

$20-$16.13

= $3.87

Hence Estaban has enough money to buy everything because he wishes to buy costs a total of $16.13 and he has an allowance of $20
