B. Rocco wants to use the rest of his money in his savings account to buy a set of golf irons that has an original price of $350. Does Rocco have enough money to buy the golf irons?

(I said no).

Nope ^_^

It says he used 0.20 of his money in his bank account,

48/.2 = 240

240 - 48 = 192

He didn't have enough to being with >.>
