Kylie received $84 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 Kylie spent in Jun and in Aug?
- Write down all the months in which Kylie spent more than half her allowance. Give the answer in short form. (Eg Jan, Mar)
(a)
Amount that Kylie spent in Apr = $49
Amount that Kylie spent in May = $37
Amount that Kylie spent in Jun = $33
Amount that Kylie spent in Jul = $29

Half of Kylie's monthly allowance
