Answer 2

Answer:

2.04 pounds left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whitney has 12 pounds pocket money

She spends 50% of it on magazines

50% of 12 pounds is 50/100 * 12 = 600/100 =         6 pounds

33% of 12 pounds is 33/100 * 12 = 395/100             3.96 pounds

Total Spent                                                                9.96 pounds

Amount left = 12 - 9.96 = 2.04

She has 2.04 pounds left.
