Sam will spend at most $27 on gifts. So far, he has spent $18. What are the possible additional amounts he will spend? Use c for the additional amount

Respuesta :

Answer:$9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the additional amount be c

Total amount to spend on gift is $27

He had spent $18 so far

$18+c= $27

C= $27-$18

C=$9
