Answer:

B. $11.54

Explanation:

to work out this question, we will need to add up the cost of the pencils, notebook and markers.

we then need to take that amount away from $20 to get the answer.

so add up the amounts:

1.99 + 1.98 + 4.49 = $8.46

now we take the cost and take it away from $20

20 - 8.46 = $11.54

so the answer for the question is B

hope this helps!
