Sam had $198 in his pocket. He used
16 of it to pay his electric bills. He then bought 2 shirts which cost $60 each.
- How much did he spend in all?
- How much money had he left?
(a)
Amount that Sam paid for the electric bill
=
16 x 198
= $33
Amount that Sam paid for the 2 shirts
= 2 x 60
= $120
Amount that Sam spent in all
= 33 + 120
= $153
(b)
Amount that Sam had left
= 198 - 153
= $45
Answer(s): (a) $153; (b) $45
