Drag each amount to the correct location in the expression.

Last month, the daily balance in Joana's credit card account was \[tex]$1,000 for 9 days, \$[/tex]750 for 10 days, \[tex]$850 for 4 days, and \$[/tex]900 for 7 days. Complete the expression to find Joana's average daily balance.

Options:
- 750
- 1,000
- 900
- 30
- 850

Expression to complete:
[tex]\[ \frac{9(\quad) + 10(\quad) + 4(\quad) + 7(\quad)}{30} \][/tex]



Answer :

Sure, let's write a detailed, step-by-step solution to find Joana's average daily balance.

1. Identify the balances and their respective days:
- Joana had a balance of \[tex]$1,000 for 9 days. - Joana had a balance of \$[/tex]750 for 10 days.
- Joana had a balance of \[tex]$850 for 4 days. - Joana had a balance of \$[/tex]900 for 7 days.

2. Calculate the total balance for each balance amount:
- For the \[tex]$1,000 balance: \( 9 \times 1,000 = 9,000 \) - For the \$[/tex]750 balance: [tex]\( 10 \times 750 = 7,500 \)[/tex]
- For the \[tex]$850 balance: \( 4 \times 850 = 3,400 \) - For the \$[/tex]900 balance: [tex]\( 7 \times 900 = 6,300 \)[/tex]

3. Add up the total balance accumulated over all the days:
- [tex]\( 9,000 + 7,500 + 3,400 + 6,300 = 26,200 \)[/tex]

4. Calculate the total number of days:
- [tex]\( 9 + 10 + 4 + 7 = 30 \)[/tex]

5. To find the average daily balance, divide the total balance by the total number of days:
- [tex]\( \frac{26,200}{30} \approx 873.33 \)[/tex]

Now, let's put these values into the expression:

[tex]\[ 9(1,000) + 10(750) + 4(850) + 7(900) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ = (30) \][/tex]

Therefore, Joana's average daily balance is approximately \$873.33.

So, the completed expression is:

[tex]\[ 9(1,000) + 10(750) + 4(850) + 7(900) \div (30) = 873.33 \][/tex]
