Kathy received $82 from her father each month for her pocket money. The line graph shows the amount of pocket money she spent each month.

- Write down all the months in which Kathy spent more than half her pocket money. Give the answer in short form. (Eg Jan, Mar)
(a)
Amount that Kathy spent in Feb = $60
Amount that Kathy spent in Mar = $26
Amount that Kathy spent in Apr = $33
