Mrs. Wilsborough saved $500 to buy concert tickets for her family. She bought 2 VIP tickets at $100 each and 3 regular tickets at $50 each. How much of her savings does Mrs. Wilsborough have after she buys the tickets? Think carefully first, then make a decision:
The 2 VIP tickets amount to $100 x 2 = $200. The 3 regular tickets amount to $50 x 3 = $150. Thus, the total cost of the tickets is $200 + $150 = $350. Therefore, Mrs. Wilsborough is left with $500 - $350 = $150 of her savings. So, the answer is 150.
