Answer 1

To estimate the total cost of the itams add the whole parts of the prices:

14+8+10 = $32

35 will be enough, since 35 > 32

Exact amount spent: add all the costs with decimals:

14.95+8.49+10.75 = $34.19

35 > 34.15

The money that Kleara has is more than the cost of the three items (34.15)

$35 will be enough-
