Question

Dirk purchased a bike horn. He paid $5.33 and received $4.18 in change. How much did the bike horn cost?

Answer 1

$1.15

Explanation:

Let's call the cost of the bike horn "x".

Dirk paid $5.33 and received $4.18 in change, so he must have paid x + $4.18 = $5.33.

Solving for x, we get x = $5.33 - $4.18 = $1.15.

Therefore, the bike horn cost $1.15.
