Question

Helen has $100 to spend on new school clothes. She has purchased three shirts that cost the same for a total of $36.75. If she buys two more shirts at the same price, how much money will Helen have left to spend?

Answer 1

$-83.75

Explanation:

She won't have any more money to spend

Multiply $36.75 by 5

That would be $183.75

Subtract 183.75 from 100

-83.75

So Helen wouldn't have anything left to spend.

She would actually be in debt because she used more than $100
