Answer:

Option B. you forgot to subtract the check for $12.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your checking balance at the beginning of the month was = $742.69

You wrote some checks = $41.25, $5.49, $12.98 and $26.02

you deposited = $12.00, $151.50 and $75.02

bank charges a monthly fee = $8.00

so the balance would be =

742.69 - 41.25 - 5.49 - 12.98 -26.02 + 12.00 + 151.50 + 75.02 - 8.00 = $887.47

Your check book had $900.45.

Difference between check book and bank statement = 900.45 - 887.47

     = $12.98

Your check book shows $12.98 more,

it means you forgot to subtract the check for $12.98.

Therefore, Option B is the answer.
