Brendan works online and is paid every week. Once he gets the money, he recharges his debit card with half of his pay. In June, he earned $5000 and bought himself a used car worth $1500. What is his total amount of remaining money at the end of the month? Let's be accurate as possible.
The total amount of money used to charge the debit card is 1 / 2 * $5000 = $2500. When he buys the used car, he still has $2500 - $1500 = $1000 left.
The answer: 1000.
