I don’t have Sue’s account balance from your question. Give me her current balance and I’ll pick the correct choice.

How to decide once you have the balance B:
- If B > $305.22 → (a) Yes, she can make the purchase and have money left over.
- If B = $305.22 → (b) Yes, but doing so will clear out her account.
- If 0 ≤ B < $305.22 → (c) No, making that purchase will overdraw her account.
- If B < 0 → (d) No, she is overdrawn already.

Provide B and I’ll answer.
