Mrs. Lewis had $100 to purchase school supplies for her class. She bought 40 glue sticks and 40 boxes of crayons. Each glue stick cost $1.50, and each box of crayons cost $0.89. How much money did Mrs. Lewis have left after these purchases?

Mr. Lewis | 100$
Glue = 1.50$ (x40)
Box = 0.89$ (x40)

1.50 x 40 = 60$
0.89 x 40 = 35,6$
Total spend (95,6$)

100 - 95,6 = 4,4$

Answer: 4,4$
