Answer:

Arianna should receive $3.05 in change.

Explanation:

In order to find the answer, you have to find the cost of the three balls by multiplying the cost per ball for the number of balls and then, you have to subtract this amount from five to find the change Arianna should receive:

$0.65*3=$1.95

$5-$1.95=$3.05

According to this, the answer is that Arianna should receive $3.05 in change.
