1. $685 - ($273 + $119)

2. $273 + $119

3. $293

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Vanessa initially has $685.

Vanessa spent $273.

Vanessa donated $119.

1. So, we get that, the expression for the money she was left with is,

Vanessa is left with $685 - ($273 + $119).

2. Since, before subtracting the amount Vanessa spent, we need to calculate the total expense she had.

Thus, the hidden calculation is $273 + $119.

3. We have the problem given by, $685 - ($273 + $119) = $685 - $392 = $293.

Thus, Vanessa is left with $293.
