Question

Jolie earned $205 for babysitting in one month. She spent ddd dollars going to a water park with some friends. After going to the water park, Jolie had $160 remaining.

Write an equation to describe this situation.


How many dollars did Jolie spend at the water park?

Answer 1

Answer:$205-ddd=$160

Explanation:

It just depends on the grade level but that is a standard equation. The ddd would stand for dollars spent at the park. If you did $205-$160 you’d get $45. So she would have spent $45 at the park :)
