To calculate Pablo's net income, we need to subtract his expenses from his earnings.
Expenses = Cost of soap, sponges, and towels + payment to son
Expenses = $46 + $25
Expenses = $71
Net Income = Earnings - Expenses
Net Income = $284 - $71
Net Income = $213
Pablo's net income for this past weekend is $213.
