Answer:

2 dollars

Explanation:

if 8 limes costs 2 dollars, then 4 limes cost 1 dollar

you purchased 12 limes so since you already know what 8 limes coms, you could subtract that

12-8=4

now you need to find out how much for 4 limes which would be half the price of 8 limes.. which should be 1 dollar

so $2.00+$1.00= $3.00

finally 5 dollars minus 3 would result in a change of 2 dollars
