Given the statement:

Jared owed his brother $19 for raking the leaves while Jared was sick.Jared's dad gave him $12 for doing his chores for the week.

Explanation:

Since it is not stated whether or not Jared gave the $12 to his brother in which he owed $19, then we can assume that the original amount of $12 is still with Jared. Hence, if Jared has given $12 to his brother, then he would now only owe him $7.

Final answer:

$12
