Answer 1

407.86
Og. Cost - $16,314.40
Months - 40
I divided $16,314.40 by 40 and got $407.86

Lucy will pay $407.86 dollars each month for 40 months.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. Cost of each notebook = 3.79

Cost of 8 notebooks = 3.79 x 8 = 30.32

Amount gave to cashier = 50

Change = 50 - 30.32 = 19.68
