A company begins the quarter with $50 in supplies. They purchase an additional $100 of supplies. At the end of the quarter, they have $25 of supplies left. How much in supplies did the company use during the quarter? Select one.

1 answer

To find out how much in supplies the company used during the quarter, we can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Supplies Used} = \text{Beginning Supplies} + \text{Purchases} - \text{Ending Supplies} \]

In this case:

  • Beginning Supplies = $50
  • Purchases = $100
  • Ending Supplies = $25

Now we can plug in the numbers:

\[ \text{Supplies Used} = 50 + 100 - 25 \]

Calculating it step by step:

  1. Add the beginning supplies and purchases: \(50 + 100 = 150\)
  2. Subtract the ending supplies: \(150 - 25 = 125\)

Thus, the company used $125 in supplies during the quarter.
