    Work backwards.

    After she put half of what she had left in, she had 17.76.

    Multiply by 2:

    17.76 * 2 = 35.52

    Add 25:

    35.52 + 25 = 60.52

    Add 14.48:

    75

    So she received $75 on her birthday.

    Start with what she was left with and work backwards

    17.76 x 2 = 35.52

    35.52 + 25 = 60.52

    60.52 + 14.48 = 75

    She was given 75 for her birthday
