Answer:

Kayla = $20.14

Michael = $19.08

The Difference = 1.06

Explanation:

How to solve.

First, you need to add up how much Kayla is paying for the video game, plus the 6% tax.

19.00 + 6% = 20.14

Then, you need to do the same with Michael's.

18.00 + 6% = 19.00

To find the difference between how much Kayla and Michael paid for their items, you need to subtract their total.

20.14 - 19.00 = 1.06

and the nearest cent would be 1.10.

I hope this helped.!
