Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much she spent on bills, multiply 4283.30 by 3/5:

She spent 4283.30*3/5 on bills

=2569.98 left

That means she has 4283.30-2569.98 left.

=1713.32 left

She spent 19.99*2 on shirts so subtract 1713.32-(19.99*2)

1713.32-39.98

=1673.34 left

She spent 12.99 on sunglasses so do 1673.34-12.99

1660.35 left
