A total of $924 was collected in registration fees. In addition, another $527 was collected at the concession stand. The costs for the day totaled $895. After subtracting the total costs from the total money collected, how much money was left?
The wording on this just confuses me for some reason.
Is it 1451-895?
Yes, you're right.
Yes, that's correct. To find out how much money was left after subtracting the total costs from the total money collected, you need to subtract the total costs ($895) from the total money collected ($924 + $527).
Total money collected = $924 + $527 = $1451
Money left = Total money collected - Total costs = $1451 - $895 = $556
Therefore, $556 was left after subtracting the total costs from the total money collected.
To find out how much money was left after subtracting the total costs from the total money collected, you'll need to add the two amounts you mentioned: the registration fees and the concession stand sales. Then, you'll need to subtract the total costs from that combined amount.
Adding the registration fees ($924) and the concession stand sales ($527) gives us a total of $1,451.
Next, we subtract the total costs ($895) from the combined amount of money collected ($1,451):
$1,451 - $895 = $556
Therefore, after subtracting the total costs from the total money collected, there is $556 left.
