Iwould hate to ask another question but avery had $25.63 in her wallet. if she bought lunch with 7 1/4 dollars from her wallet, how much money did she have in her wallet after lunch?
a.$18.63
b. $18.38
c. $18.53
d. $17.38

Don't hesitate to ask questions. Asking questions is the way you learn! as for the question:
She started out with $25.63.
1/4 is .25 in decimal form, so lunch cost $7.25. 
Subtract 7.25 from 25.63
Our answer is 18.38
Avery has $18.53 after lunch.

Hey! :)

So essentially what the question is asking is, if she had $25.63 at the beginning of lunch, and spent 7 1/4 dollars during lunch, how much does she have now?

So, basically, you would subtract 7 1/4 dollars from $25.63

Our first step is to find out how much money 7 1/4 dollars is.

So, we know that there are 25 cents per fourth of a dollar, and 2 fourths is 1/2 of a dollar, so we know that because there are 25 cents in a 1/4 of a dollar, 7 1/4 is just 7 dollars and 25 cents.

7 1/4 = $7.25

So, our new question is :

$25.63 - $7.25 = ?

Line up your decimal points.

Subtract the decimal points first.

0.63 - 0.25 = 0.38

Then, subtract your whole numbers.

25 - 7 = 18

So, our answer is $18 whole dollars and 38 cents.

Written out as : $18.38

So, your answer is B) $18.38
