• A. $\$$1663
• B. $\$$653
• C. $\$$1673
• D. $\$$663

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\$$653

Initial amount in George's bank account = $\$$3472

Amount spent by George = $\$$2819

∴ Amount remaining in the account
= $\$$(3472 - 2819)

Calculating 3472 - 2819 using the place value table, we get:


So, 3472 - 2819 = 653

∴ The amount remaining in George's bank account is $\$$653.
