It looks tricky but its actually simple. Bank statement shows balance is $1054.13 while Bess check register shows $869.96. For us to know the amount of the check that was not approved is to get the difference of the bank statement and Bess check register. $1054.13 minus 869.96 is $184.17. Therefore, the answer is letter B.
