Question

On Monday, George's checking account held $61.72. On Tuesday, he withdrew $57.00 from the account. On Thursday afternoon he deposited $197.27. What was his final balance Friday morning?

Answer 1

$201.99

Explanation:

Given that:

Amount held on Monday = $61.72

Amount withdrawn on Tuesday = $57.00

Amount deposited on Thursday = $197.27

Final balance :

Amount held on Monday - Amount withdrawn on Tuesday + Amount deposited on Thursday

$61.72 - $57.00 + $197.27 = $201.99

Hence, final balance = $201.99
