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
