Title: Follow Up


I have -$870 on my credit card.  I repaid $35 on my credit card. How much money do I now have?
-870 + 35 = -835  
Interest is 10%.  How much will interest be?
835% of 10% = 83.5%
What will the number problem be to show the total amount I pay?
-835 - 83.5
How much do I owe?
= 918.5

I am solving a word problem that involves how to find a percentage of a number, it helps me to figure out weather I have to add or subtract a negative digit.
