Question
Sarah's mom gave her 30, a T-shirt for 26. How much money does Sarah have left?
Solution
Sarah started with $79.
First, subtract the cost of the sweater from her total amount: 30 = $49
Then, subtract the cost of the T-shirt: 7 = $42
Finally, subtract the cost of the shoes: 26 = $16
So, Sarah has $16 left.
