Liam had $170 in his pocket. He used
15 of it to pay his electric bills. He then bought 2 jackets which cost $46 each.
- How much did he spend in all?
- How much money had he left?
(a)
Amount that Liam paid for the electric bill
=
15 x 170
= $34
Amount that Liam paid for the 2 jackets
= 2 x 46
= $92
Amount that Liam spent in all
= 34 + 92
= $126
(b)
Amount that Liam had left
= 170 - 126
= $44
Answer(s): (a) $126; (b) $44
