To find out how much money Emma had before she bought the salad and drink, we need to add the total cost of the salad and drink to the amount of money she had left after the purchase.
-
Calculate the total cost of the salad and drink:
- Salad: $4.75
- Drink: $1.65
Total cost = $4.75 + $1.65 = $6.40
-
Add this total cost to the amount of money she had left:
- Amount left: $18.35
Total amount before purchase = Total cost + Amount left Total amount before purchase = $6.40 + $18.35 = $24.75
Therefore, Emma had $24.75 before she bought the salad and drink.
