Answer 23

We found out that Eva deposited a total of 1368 into her account in 20 months. BUT she used 42.40 a month for her crafting classes. So how much did she spend on crafting classes in 20 months if she spent 42.40 a month?

Answer 24

hm

Answer 25

42.40 times 20 = ?

Answer 26

multiply 42.40 times 20

Answer 27

848

Answer 28

Yes, and since she spent that amount you have to subtract it from her balance of 1368, right? What is left when you take 1368-848?
