Question

You spend $62 on a game, receive $50 for painting a fence, and give $10 to your friend. You have $44 left.
How much money did you start with?

Answer 1

Answer:

You started with $66.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be:

$x-62+50-10=44\\ x-22=44\\ x=66$

To check the answer:

$66-62+50-10=44\\4+50-10=44\\54-10=44\\44=44$
