4 Dawn had $25 more than Tom. After Dawn gave some of her money to Tom, she had $37 less than Tom. How much money did Dawn give to Tom?

Step 1: Let's denote the amount of money Tom had initially as T. Therefore, Dawn had T + $25.

Step 2: After Dawn gave some money to Tom, she had $37 less than Tom. Let's denote the amount of money Dawn gave to Tom as D. So, Tom now has T + D and Dawn has (T +$25) - D.

Step 3: According to the problem, after giving D dollars to Tom, Dawn had $37 less than Tom. So, we can write the equation: (T +$25) - D = T + D - $37.

Step 4: Simplify the equation to find the value of D.

2D = $25 +$37 = $62.

Step 5: Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for D.

D = $62 / 2 =$31.

So, Dawn gave $31 to Tom.
