A student first borrowed $41.75, then borrowed another $16.75 from his father.
He then paid back $20.25. How much does he still owe his father?

The student initially borrowed two amounts: 

- First: $41.75
- Second: $16.75

So, the total amount borrowed is:

\[
41.75 + 16.75 = 58.50
\]

Then, the student paid back $20.25. To find how much he still owes, subtract the amount paid back from the total borrowed:

\[
58.50 - 20.25 = 38.25
\]

Therefore, the student still owes his father **$38.25**.

Here are some related questions to think about:
1. What would the student owe if he paid back $30 instead?
2. How much more does the student need to pay to completely settle the debt?
3. If the father charges interest, how would that affect the remaining debt?
4. What percentage of the total borrowed amount has the student repaid?
5. How would the balance change if the student paid an additional $10 next week?

**Tip:** Always check the total borrowed and paid amounts when calculating debts to avoid errors!
