Question

Salid bought 30 feet of window trim at a hardware store. The trim cost $1.75 per foot including sales tax. If Salid paid with a $100.00 bill, how much change should he have received?

Answer 1

47.50

Explanation:

According to the question above Salid bought 30 feet of window at a hardware trim store

The trim cost of each window is $1.75 per foot with an inclusion of sales tax added to this amount

= $1.75×30

= 52.5

Since Salid paid for the trim service with a cash of $100.00, his change is calculated as follows

=$100-52.5

= $47.50

Hence Salid change is $47.50
