Juan is setting up a lemonade stand in his neighborhood to earn money for a new gaming console. Originally, Juan borrowed $10, but his mother loaned him $3 more, so he borrowed a total of $13. He sells $25 worth of lemonade in his first week.

How much money will he have left after he pays back his mother?

3 answers

Juan borrowed a total of $13, which includes the $10 and the additional $3 from his mother. After selling $25 worth of lemonade, we can determine how much money he has.

  1. Amount earned from lemonade sales: $25
  2. Amount borrowed: $13

Now, we need to calculate how much money he has left after paying back his mother:

  1. Total money after sales: $25
  2. Amount owed to his mother: $3

Now, we subtract the amount he owes to his mother from the money he has:

\[ \text{Money left after paying back mother} = \text{Total money} - \text{Amount owed} \]

\[ \text{Money left} = 25 - 3 = 22 \]

Therefore, after paying back his mother, Juan will have $22 left.

Let's carefully go through the calculations step by step again to ensure accuracy.

  1. Total Money Earned from Sales: Juan sold $25 worth of lemonade.

  2. Total Amount Borrowed:

    • He borrowed $10 initially.
    • Then, his mother loaned him an additional $3.
    • Total borrowed amount: \(10 + 3 = 13\)
  3. Amount Owed to His Mother: Since Juan owes $3 to his mother, he needs to pay this back.

  4. Calculating Money Left After Paying Back His Mother:

    • Total money after sales: $25
    • Money owed to his mother: $3
    • Money left after paying back his mother: \[ 25 - 3 = 22 \]

The previous calculations were indeed accurate. Therefore, after paying back his mother, Juan will have $22 left.
