Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. Yasmin earned a total of \$283 from babysitting and \$45 from walking dogs.
2. Yasmin spent \$139 on a wedding present.
3. We need to determine which option does not correctly calculate the remaining money.

STEP 2

1. Calculate the total earnings.
2. Calculate the remaining money using each option.
3. Identify the incorrect option.

STEP 3

Calculate the total earnings from both jobs.
Total earnings=$283+$45=$328\text{Total earnings} = \$283 + \$45 = \$328

STEP 4

Calculate the remaining money using Option A.
Option A: ($283+$45)−$139=$328−$139=$189\text{Option A: } (\$283 + \$45) - \$139 = \$328 - \$139 = \$189

STEP 5

Calculate the remaining money using Option B.
Option B: ($283−$139)+$45=$144+$45=$189\text{Option B: } (\$283 - \$139) + \$45 = \$144 + \$45 = \$189

STEP 6

Calculate the remaining money using Option C.
Option C: $283+$45−$139=$328−$139=$189\text{Option C: } \$283 + \$45 - \$139 = \$328 - \$139 = \$189

STEP 7

Compare the results from each option to identify the incorrect one.
- Option A: \$189 - Option B: \$189 - Option C: \$189
All options correctly calculate the remaining money as \$189. Therefore, the answer is:
D Not here\boxed{\text{D Not here}}
