Question

Danny spent $20.00 at the store. The tax rate is 6.5%. If Danny gives the cashier $30, how much change would he recieve?

Answer 1

The final answer is $8.70

Explanation:

6.5% of $20.00 is

6.5%*20=(6.5/100)*20=(6.5*2)/10=13/10=1.3

so the change he would receive is

30-(20+1.3)=30-21.3=8.7
