Francie saves up her allowance for several weeks. She receives an allowance of $5 a week for 8 weeks. Then her dad raises her allowance, and she receives $6 a week for 6 weeks. Francie uses half of the money to buy new clothes. With the remaining money, she buys a video game that costs $35. How much money does Francie have remaining after buying the video game? Let's answer step by step:
When her allowance is $5 a week, Francie gets a total of $5 * 8 = $40. When her allowance is $6 a week, Francie gets a total of $6 * 6 = $36. The total amount of money Francie gets is $40 + $36 = $76. After purchasing new clothes, she has $76 / 2 = $38 remaining. After buying the video game, Francie has $38 - $35 = $3 remaining. The answer: 3.
