Question

Juan is setting up a lemonade stand in his neighborhood to earn money for a new gaming console. Originally, Juan borrowed $10, but his mother loaned him $3 more, so he borrowed a total of $13. He sells $25 worth of lemonade in his first week.

How much money will he have left after he pays back his mother?

Answer 1

are you sure

Answer 2

Juan borrowed a total of $13, which includes the $10 and the additional $3 from his mother. After selling $25 worth of lemonade, we can determine how much money he has.

1. Amount earned from lemonade sales: $25
2. Amount borrowed: $13

Now, we need to calculate how much money he has left after paying back his mother:

3. Total money after sales: $25
4. Amount owed to his mother: $3

Now, we subtract the amount he owes to his mother from the money he has:

\[
\text{Money left after paying back mother} = \text{Total money} - \text{Amount owed}
\]

\[
\text{Money left} = 25 - 3 = 22
\]

Therefore, after paying back his mother, Juan will have **$22** left.

Answer 3

Let's carefully go through the calculations step by step again to ensure accuracy.

1. **Total Money Earned from Sales**: Juan sold $25 worth of lemonade.
2. **Total Amount Borrowed**:
- He borrowed $10 initially.
- Then, his mother loaned him an additional $3.
- Total borrowed amount: \(10 + 3 = 13\)

3. **Amount Owed to His Mother**: Since Juan owes $3 to his mother, he needs to pay this back.

4. **Calculating Money Left After Paying Back His Mother**:
- Total money after sales: $25
- Money owed to his mother: $3
- Money left after paying back his mother:
\[
25 - 3 = 22
\]

The previous calculations were indeed accurate. Therefore, after paying back his mother, Juan will have **$22** left.
