Question

Bianca bought a pack of rechargeable batteries for

$9.99. If the sales tax on the batteries is 3% and Bianca
pays with $11 cash, how much change will she get back?

Answer 1

Answer: 0.71 cents

Explanation:

9.99x0.03=0.2997

9.99+0.2997=10.2897 rounds to 10.29

11-10.29=0.71

Answer 2

$0.71

Explanation:

Find the cost with sales tax

9.99(1.03)

= 10.29

Subtract this from 11

11 - 10.29

= 0.71

So, Bianca will get $0.71 back in change
