To find out how much money Reem has after paying her friend back, you can subtract the amount she owes from her earnings.

First, let's calculate:

  1. Reem's earnings: $43.78
  2. Amount owed to her friend: $15.25

Now, subtract the amount owed from her earnings:

\[ 43.78 - 15.25 = 28.53 \]

So, after paying her friend back, Reem has $28.53 left.

The correct response is:

$28.53
