    First, lets subtract the bills from the balance one by one.

    1459.75 - 200.25 = 1259.50

    For the next bill, we subtract the value from the new value computed

    1259.50 - 359.45 = 900.05

    Same thing for the next bill.

    900.05 - 125.00 = 755.05

    Finally, the last bill.

    755.05 - 299.35 = 475.70

    Lastly, we'll deal with the deposit. Because the money is going into the account, we'll add instead of subtract.

    475.70 + 375.00 = 850.70

    So the amount in her account after all the transactions is 850.70.
