Question

Allie bought 5 shakes and paid 3.43 for each. Then, Allie bought 4 hamburgers for 5.65 each with three $10 bills. What was the change from the purchase?

Answer 1

$7.40

Explanation:

Since both purchases cannot be paid for with $30, we assume the question refers only to the second purchase.

The cost of the 4 hamburgers is ...

4 × $5.65 = $22.60

Then the change from $30 is ...

$30.00 -22.60 = $7.40

Allie will receive $7.40 in change from the purchase of 4 hamburgers.
