Question
Herman's uncle gave him 12 each, a basketball that cost 19. How much money does Herman have left?
Solution
First, let's calculate the total cost of the jerseys. Since each jersey costs 12 = $48.
Next, let's add the cost of the basketball and the pair of shorts to the total cost of the jerseys. The basketball costs 19, so the total cost is 29 (for the basketball) + 96.
Herman started with 96 on basketball equipment, he has 96 = $43 left.
