Question

Jessica got fast food for lunch. Jessica paid 3.10 dollars on fries and 4.88 on the sandwich with a $10 bill. Jessica got a combo deal. What was the change from the purchase?

Answer 1

$2.02

Explanation:

If Jessica paid $3.10 for fries and $4.88 for the sandwich, we need to add these two values together to find the total cost of her entire meal.

3.10 + 4.88 = 7.98

Since Jessica paid with a $10 bill then we need to subtract the total from the bill in order to find the change that Jessica will receive from her purchase.

$10 - $7.98 = $2.02

Now we can see that Jessica will receive a total of $2.02 in change after making her purchase.
