Step-by-step explanation:

If she paid the store $67.50 (USD) and the membership is 20$ take that 20 and add 2.50 onto it till you get the answer BUT if you want to explain it all the way each month has about 30 days in it so 30x3=90 so she was there for 90 days. 90x$2.50=225 but we all know, she couldn't have rented that many ... right? but the final answer is 19, you take 20 from 67.50 which was the membership and all you have to do is fill in that missing amount so take 2.50 and multiply till you get the answer.
