Question

Last week, Angelo deposited a $800 check from his restaurant job and spent $500 on a clarinet. Which integer represents the change in how much money Angelo had?

Answer 1

The change in how much money that Angelo had is $300.

Explanation:

Since Angelo deposited a $800 check, which implies that he would have $800 at maturity of the check.

He spent $500 on a clarinet from the $800.

So that,

The change in how much money Angelo had = amount deposited - amount spent on the clarinet

= $800 - $500

= $300

Therefore, the change in how much money that Angelo had is $300.
