After 10 months, he used 1 over 2 of the total money left in his account to go to a summer camp for artists. What is the total amount of money Benny spent to go to the summer camp?

B. $280.00
C. $420.00
D. $440.00

Answer 1

It is b:$280.00 have a good day

Answer 2

Answer: B

If Benny deposits $92.50 every month and withdraws $36.50 every month, his net deposit each month is:

92.50 - 36.50 = 56

Benny does this for 10 months, so his balance after 10 months is:

56 * 10 = 560

Half of this is:

560/2 = 280
