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.

Juan borrowed a total of $13, which includes the $10 from one source and $3 from his mother. After selling $25 worth of lemonade in his first week, he will pay back the $3 he owes to his mother.

Here's the calculation:

  1. Total money earned from lemonade sales: $25
  2. Money owed to his mother: $3
  3. Amount left after paying back his mother: $25 - $3 = $22

Since the question asks how much money he will have left after paying back his mother, the options provided do not include $22. However, if we only consider the money he has remaining after repaying the loan to his mother, he has $22.

Among the options you've provided: • $25 • $10 • $12 • $13

None of them accurately represent the amount left after paying the loan. If you still want to answer based solely on the numbers listed, you can choose $13, which is what he has left after repaying his total loan if he only considers the amount borrowed and not the income gained. But technically, the correct total left after selling the lemonade and repaying is $22, which isn't an option listed.
