Question

Tasia owes her sister $15. She just got paid $10.50 for babysitting. If she gives that money to her sister, how much, in dollars, will she still owe?

Answer 1

To find out, subtract the amount of money Tasia just got paid for babysitting from the amount Tasia owes her sister. So

$\text{ \ 15 - \ 10.5 = \ 4.5}$

Therefore, Tasia still owes her sister $4.5.
