Question

You buy 4 cases of bottled water and 5 bottles of fruit punch for a birthday party. Each case of bottled water costs $2.75, and each bottle of fruit punch costs $1.35. You hand the cashier a $20 bill. How much change will you receive?

Answer 1

$2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Change

= $20 - total price of the items bought

Total price of bottled water

= 4($2.75)

= $11

Total price of fruit punch

= 5($1.35)

= $6.75

Change

= $20 -($11 +$6.75)

= $20 -$17.75

= $2.25
