Shakira has a balance of $202.86 in her checking account on Saturday morning. She uses her debit card to pay her cell phone bill of $80.73 over the phone. She then picks up her dry cleaning, dog food at the pet store and groceries for debits of $16.89, $35.24, and $113.92. Shakira’s bank uses a balance system of deducting highest transactions first. The bank will not return amounts up to a total of $50 in overdrafts, but they do charge a fee for each overdraft. How many overdraft fees will Shakira incur?
