Winnie received $76 from her father each month for her allowance. The line graph shows the amount of allowance she spent each month.
- What is the difference between the amounts Winnie spent in Feb and in Apr?
- Write down all the months in which Winnie spent more than half her allowance. Give the answer in short form. (Eg Jan, Mar)
(a)
Amount that Winnie spent in Dec = $53
Amount that Winnie spent in Jan = $28
Amount that Winnie spent in Feb = $37
Amount that Winnie spent in Mar = $23
