Question

Erin buys 3 packs of potatoes costing £3 each, 3 packs of carrots for £2 per pack, and 4 turnips costing 60p each.

If she pays with a £20 note, how much change would she get?

Answer 1

£2.6

Explanation:

Given data

3 packs of potatoes costing £3 each= 3*3= £9

3 packs of carrots for £2 per pack= 3*2= £6

4 turnips costing 60p each= 4* 0.60= £2.4

Hence the total cost = 9+6+2.4= £17.4

Hence the change will be 20-17.4

= £2.6
