Peter had $140 in his pocket. He used
110 of it to pay his electric bills. He then bought 2 hoodies which cost $44 each.
- How much did he spend in all?
- How much money had he left?
(a)
Amount that Peter paid for the electric bill
=
110 x 140
= $14
Amount that Peter paid for the 2 hoodies
= 2 x 44
= $88
Amount that Peter spent in all
= 14 + 88
= $102
(b)
Amount that Peter had left
= 140 - 102
= $38
Answer(s): (a) $102; (b) $38
