Answer 1

Answer:

$63.00

Step-by-step explanation:

He has $59 in his bank account. We only know that he is charged $35 and went to the hobby store. Now he has -$39 in his bank account.

1) Subract what you already know.

  $59 - 35 = $24

2) Found out how much you need to spend to get -$39

   24 is 24 spaces from 0 and -39 is 39 spaces from 0. So to know what is between ( to get -39 from +24 ) you add 24 +39.

24 + 39 = 63
