Anna received $78 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 Anna spent in Jun and in Aug?
- Write down all the months in which Anna spent more than half her allowance. Give the answer in short form. (Eg Jan, Mar)
(a)
Amount that Anna spent in Apr = $59
Amount that Anna spent in May = $25
Amount that Anna spent in Jun = $29
Amount that Anna spent in Jul = $25

Difference between the amounts Anna spent in Jun and Aug
= 51 - 29
= $22
