Question

A customer buys 17.01 in gas and requests one five dollar [$5] lottery ticket, two one dollar [$1] lottery tickets, and one [$3] lottery ticket. He gives you two winning tickets to be redeemed: one for ($5) and the other for ($2). How much change would he receive from a $100 bill?

A.$20.1
B.$72.01
C.$74.99
D.$79.99

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter "D.$79.99."
$17.01 + $5 + $2 + $3= $27.01
$100 - $27.01 = $72.99

$72.99 + 7 = $79.99

So the change the he would receive from a $100 bill is $79.99 after buying lottery tickets of different cost.
