Answer: $13

Explanation:

Given: The cost of two rolls of paper towel = $1

The cost of a box of diapers = $3

Then, the cost of two boxes of diapers =
2*3=\$6

Now, the total cost of two rolls of paper towel and 2 boxes of diapers is given by :-


\$1+\$6=\$7

The amount will get as change from a 20 dollar bill=
\$20-\$7=\$13

Hence, the she will get $13 as change from a 20 dollar bill.
