Question

Graham puts $20 in his piggy bank every week. At the end of 39 weeks, he adds $100 to the piggy bank money and decides to do the following:

1. buy some clothes and sports gear for $314.23
2. buy his mom a present for $123
3. divide the rest of the money equally among his three brothers

Use a calculator to find the amount of money each brother will get.

Answer 1

147.59 Per Brother...

Answer 2

Okay take it in steps.

$20 a week for 39 weeks = 20 x 39 = $780
Plus $100 gives him $880
Then he spends $314.23 so he has $565.77
Then he spends another $123 which leaves him with $442.77
Divide that by three to get your answer :)

Answer 3

147.59
