Answer 1

To calculate the amount remaining in Latesha's lunch account for each day, we can use the initial amount and subtract the daily lunch cost.

Starting amount: $85
Daily lunch cost: $3

Here’s the calculation for each day:

- Day 0: $85 (initial amount)
- Day 1: $85 - $3 = $82
- Day 2: $82 - $3 = $79
- Day 3: $79 - $3 = $76
- Day 4: $76 - $3 = $73
- Day 5: $73 - $3 = $70

Now, placing the amounts in the blanks:

Amount Left in Account ($)
- Day 0: 85
- Day 1: 82
- Day 2: 79
- Day 3: 76
- Day 4: 73
- Day 5: 70

Please fill in the amounts as indicated.
