After a deposit of $100,a withdrawal of $125, and a deposit of $24, the balance in a savings account was $27.28. what was the balance before the deposits and withdrawal?

The balance before the deposits and withdrawal was $28.28

Step-by-step explanation:

In a savings account these transactions are done:

Deposit = $100

Withdrawal = $125

Deposit again = $24

Total balance = $27.28

Let the balance before these transactions is = x

Now we calculate these transactions into this balance :

x + 100 - 125 + 24 = $27.28

x = 27.28 - 100 + 125 - 24

x = 28.28

Before these deposits and withdrawal the account balance was $28.28

We can now recheck the calculation

Deposits         Withdrawals        Balance

                                                     28.28

100                                               128.28

                           125                       3.28

24                                                  27.28
