Overdraft account
Many bank accounts never go below zero. However, some banks will allow a negative balance, at least for a short time, called an overdraft. It means someone has taken out, or 'drafted', more money than was in the account, to begin with. Hannah's account went into overdraft. To get back to a positive balance, she deposited money at a steady rate of $39.58 per week. After 8 weeks, she had $285.7 in the account. What was the balance when the account went into overdraft?
