Answer:

19 juice boxes and $ 0.4 change.

Explanation:

Total money we have = $ 15.60

Cost of each juice box= $ 0.80

Number of juice boxes=
(15.6)/(0.80)

Number of juice boxes= 19.5

Number of juice boxes = 19 (approx)

Yes, there will be an expectation to get change

Cost of 19 juice boxes= 19×0.80= $ 15.2

The change we get = $ 15.6 - $ 15.2

The change we get = $ 0.4

Hence, the correct answer is 19 juice boxes and $ 0.4 change.
