Answer:
Answer is $72.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total money Veronica had be $x.
According to question,
she gave 20% of her money to Bill i.e $35. So,
20% of $x = $35
20/100 × x = 35
x = $175
Now, she spends 50% of the remaining money in buying books. So,
Remaining money = $175 - $35 = $145
Therefore, money spent on buying books is-
50% of $145 = 50/100 × 145 = $72.5 and,
Money left = $145 - $72.5 = $72.5
