Solution

To find out how much Martin had saved before he bought the drone, you need to add the cost of the drone to the amount he has left.

The equation for this would be:

s = 68(costofthedrone)+68 (cost of the drone) + 41 (amount left)

So, to solve for s (total savings before buying the drone), you would add 68 and 41 together.

s = 68+68 + 41 s = $109

So, Martin had $109 saved before he bought the drone.
