You need to estimate the prices of the fish and food. I going to round to the whole amount. 3.69= 4.00; 4.19=4.00. 2 fish at 4.00 equals 8.00; plus the 4.00 for food equals 12.00. 25.-12=13.00. You will only have enough to buy the round tank at 11.48.
Even if you add the fish and food together minus the 25. You can still only get the round tank.

Answer: you will only have enough money for the rounded tank, after buying everything you will have 9 cents left

Step-by-step explanation: two $3.69 fish, $4.19 fish food. 2x3.69=7.38+4.19=11.57

25-11.57=13.43

13.43+11.48=24.91

25-24.91=0.09
