Question

Mario buys a shirt for $28.95 and a pair of socks for $4.29. He gives the clerk at the store two 20 bills. How much change should Mario receive?

Answer 1

Mario gave the clerk two 20 dollar bills, which is a total of 40 dollars.

The total cost of the shirt and socks is $28.95 + $4.29 = $33.24.

To find out how much change Mario should receive, we need to subtract the total cost from the amount that he gave to the clerk:

$40.00 - $33.24 = $6.76

Therefore, Mario should receive $6.76 in change.
