Sasha goes to buy groceries. She buys two packages of corn (99€ per package),three gallons of milk ($2.90 per gallon), and a loaf of bread ($1.29). She givesthe clerk $20.00 for her purchases. How much change does Sasha get back?

Respuesta :

First, multiply the price of each item by the number of items to find the total amount of money spent on each:

2 packages of corn for $0.99 each

[tex]2\times0.99=1.98[/tex]

3 gallons of milk for $2.90 each

[tex]3\times2.90=8.70[/tex]

A loaf of bread: $1.29

Then, add all the quantities to find the total price for all the purchases:

[tex]1.98+8.70+1.29=11.97[/tex]

Substract the total price of the purchases from $20.00 to find the amount of change that Sasha gets back:

[tex]20.00-11.97=8.03[/tex]

Therefore, the amount of money that she gets back, is:

[tex]8.03[/tex]
