Answer: D. $72

Explanation:

If she earns $115 a month and June and July is a combination of two months then we will have to find the amount she earn toegther in June and July by multiplying 2 by $115.

2(115) = 230

She earned $230 in those months, and if the bicycle cost $158 , then we will have to subtract $158 from $230 to find her remaining amount.

$230 - $158 = $72

Answer:72

Explanation:

115+115=230

230-158=72

If you add the 115 a month that she earns from babysitting, then add both the months pay together, than subtract 158(cost of the bicycle) by the total pay, you should get 72$
