Question

1. financial literacy stephanie has $152 in the bank. she withdraws $20. then she deposits $84. write an addition expression to represent this situation. then find the sum and explain its meaning. (example 1)

Explanation:

Step1: Define the initial amount and transactions

Initial amount is $152$, withdrawal of $20$ is -$20$ (negative as it's money taken out), deposit of $84$ is +$84$. The addition expression is $152+( - 20)+84$.

Step2: First, calculate $152+( - 20)$

$152+( - 20)=152 - 20=132$.

Step3: Then, add the deposit amount

$132 + 84=216$.

Answer:

The addition expression is $152+( - 20)+84$ and the sum is $216$. This sum represents the final amount of money Stephanie has in the bank after the withdrawal and deposit transactions.
