last weekend, Roy earned Php 75.00 for selling newspaper on Saturday and Php 60.00 for selling Sampaguita on Sunday .He spent Php 80.00 for his school needs .To find the amount left from his earnings (E), what is the equation?

Answer 1

Amount left from his earnings (E) = Total amount earned - total amount spent  = Php 55.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Amount earned by Roy on Saturday = Php 75.00

Amount earned by Roy on Sunday   = Php 60.00

Amount spent by Roy on school needs = Php 80.00

To find: Amount left from his earnings (E).

Total amount earned by Roy = Amount earned on Saturday + Amount earned on Sunday = 75.00 + 60.00 = Php 135.00

Amount left from his earnings (E) = Total amount earned - total amount spent

=  135.00 - 80.00

= Php 55.00
