Troy and two of his friends do

yard work for Troy's dad. After

Troy's dad paid $35 for gas

and expenses, the boys made

$128 in October. How much

will each boy make?

The answer is 31, because they made $128 total then you subtract $35 from expenses which equals to $93 and finally divide 93/3 = 31

Answer: Each boy gets $31.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

We have 3 kids (Troy and two friends)

The father paid $35 for gas and expenses.

The boys made $128.

Then we have $128 divided equally into 3 boys.

But those $35 of expenses must be returned for the dad (guess that the gas and expenses are things neede for the kids)

So the amount that they can divide is $128 - $35 = $93

then each boy gets N = $93/3 = $31
