Answer 1

Cost in dollars and cents for each video game = $23.98

Explanation:

Total amount Marshall paid for four video games = $100

Total change given to Marshall = $4.08

Actual cost of the video games = Total amount Marshall paid for four video games - Total change given to Marshall

= $100 - $4.08

= $95.92

Total number of videos games bought = 4

What is the cost in dollars and cents for each video game

Cost of each video game = Actual cost of the video games / Total number of videos games bought

= $95.92 / 4

= $23.98

Cost in dollars and cents for each video game = $23.98

23 dollars .98 cent
