Mark went to the bookstore. He bought 3

books for $6.00 each and two magazines
for $3.50 each. He received a 25% discount
on his purchase. If he handed the cashier
$20, how much change did Mark get back?

Answer: $1.25

Step-by-step explanation: (6*3) = 18 + (2*3.50)= 7

18+7=25

25*.25= 6.25

25-6.25= 18.75

20-18.75 = 1.25
