Jane Hilman went to her bank. She had a balance of $2,539.78 in her savings account. She withdrew $150.00 and the teller credited her account with $6.19. What is her new balance?The new balance will be $ ____

Answers

Answer:      

New Balance of Jane Hilman savings account = $2395.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of money Jane Hilman had in her account = $2539.78

Amount of money withdrew by her when she went to the bank = $150

Amount of money left in her account after withdraw = 2539.78 - 150

                                                                                       = $2389.78

Also, Teller credited her account with $6.19

And we need to find the new balance of Jane Hilman account

Thus, New Balance of Jane Hilman savings account = 2389.78 + 6.19

                                                                                           = $2395.97

$150-$6.19=$143.81


2,539.78-143.81=2395.97
