Question

The current price for gasoline is $3.049 per gallon. A customer puts 7.45 gallons in her car. How much does she pay for the gas? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

$22.72 for gas

Explanation:

If each gallon costs $3.049, then we multiply the cost of each gallon by 7.45

3.049 x 7.45 = 22.71505

As the question asks us to round to the nearest cent in 22.71505, we would round up.

Your answer is $22.75 for gas
