Answer $52

Explanation: Deposit means to add. So Ahmad deposits (adds) $56 to his account which already has $46. (46 + 56 = 102) This raises his balance to $102. Then Ahmad writes two check for $17 and $30 meaning he loses these amounts. (102-17 = 85) (85 - 30 = 55) Lastly he is charged a $3 fee. (55-3 = 52)
