$20


$20.00. After she spent $40.00 on a new bag, she had $60.00 left. Twelve dollars was spent on a new sprocket, leaving her with $48.00. One eighth of her original $100 ($12.50) was spent on marshmallows. Ther leaves her $35.50 ($48.00-$12.50). she then spends 31/71 on a new lipstick, or $15.50. she now has $20.00 ($35.50 - $15.50).
