Ella earns some extra christmas shopping money baby elf-sitting but after stocking up on wrapping paper she only has a third of her earnings left. She also spent $12 on a stylish new santa hat. What were her elf-sitting earnings if she only has $20 left?

96 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ella earns some extra christmas shopping money baby elf-sitting but after stocking up on wrapping paper she only has a third of her earnings left.

Let Ella earnings = E

Third of her earning left = E/3

She also spent $12 on a stylish new santa hat.

That is, E/3 - 12

What were her elf-sitting earnings if she only has $20 left?

Then,

E/3 - 12 = 20

Collect the like terms

E/3 = 20 + 12

E/3 = 32

Cross multiply

E = 32 × 3

E = 96 dollars

Therefore, her elf-sitting earnings is 96 dollars.
