Wrote a check for $\$120$ is an expense so it has to subtracted. New balance $=\$290-\$120=\$170$. Deposited $\$25$: New balance $=\$170+\$25=\$195$. Wrote two checks $\$60$ and $\$32$. New balance $=\$195-\$60-\$32=\$103$. Month service charge of $\$5$. New balance $=\$103-\$5=\$98$. Hence, the balance at the end of the month is $\$98$.
