Question

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? (1 point) Responses $12 $12 $10 $10 $13 $13 $25

Answer 1

Juan initially borrows a total of $13 (which includes the $10 and the additional $3 from his mother). After selling $25 worth of lemonade, he needs to pay back his mother the $3 she loaned him.

So, after paying back his mother, Juan will have:

$25 (earnings) - $3 (amount owed to his mother) = $22 left.

The remaining money after paying his mother is $22.

However, the available responses only include amounts less than or equal to $13. If the question is only concerned with whether Juan has any remaining after paying back the loan to his mother, the correct response is that he will have $22.

In terms of available responses, the closest correct interpretation is that Juan will remain with $22 after paying off what he owes his mother.
