Bonnie works at a jewelry store and earns a 10% commission on each piece of jewelry she sells. One day, she sells $1250 worth of jewelry. Her boss gives her the commission she earned that day, and Bonnie spends that money to buy a new dress. After buying the dress, she sees a pair of shoes she would like to get, but she doesn’t have enough money to buy them.

Look at the problem-solving steps shown below. Arrange the steps in the correct order to find out how much more money Bonnie needs in order to buy the shoes.

Step x: Find out how much the shoes cost and subtract the amount of money Bonnie had left after buying the dress.

Step y: Find out how much Bonnie spent on the dress and subtract that from the amount of money she earned from commission.

Step z: Find how much money Bonnie earned from commission.

What is the correct order of the problem-solving steps?
