Answer:

0.05 cents

Explanation:

Given that George has $2.00 to spend at a store. He buys 3 cans of soda. Each can of soda costs 65 cents.

George has to use both multiplication and subtraction to find out the change

Spending at a store...$2.00

Costs of each can...$0.65

Cost of 3 cans....3×0.65= $1.95

Change he receives.... 2-1.95 = 0.05 cents
