Question

Victor has $60.00 in his wallet.He buys a basketball for $12.89 and a sled for $39.99. How much money does he have left

Answer 1

$60.00 - $12.89 = $47.11 - $39.99 = $7.12 so victor has $7.12 left

Answer 2

This problem is basically all subtraction. So if Victor starts with $60.00 but spends $12.89 and another $39.99 he'll have $7.12 left.

60 -12.89 = 47.11
47.11 - 39.99 = 7.12 ; thus $7.12 is your answer
