Mr.Stein is purchasing 2.25 pounds of meat that costs $2.80 per pound.How much change should Mr.Stein receive if he gives the cashier $20.00? Please help!!!!!
first you do 2.25 times 2.80 then take that number and subtract it from 20
thats your answer
@Valerie_diaz123 Understand?
I understand
For this problem, you have to calculate the price of each meat per pound. So 2.25x2.80= 6.3 is the price. Now subtract the amount he paid from the price of the meat to find the change returned. So 20-6.3 = $13.7 so 13 dollars and 75 cents. I hope that helps.
