Here is the solution to the given problem above:
Given: 10.75 gallons, which is $3.60 per gallon = $38.70
Cookie = $1.25 + 4% food tax = $1.30
Wiper fluid = $4.97
Cash = $20.00
? = amount charged to debit card
In order to know the amount charged to the debit card, we will add first all the amounts spent and the total is $44.97. Deduct $20.00 from the total, so the remaining amount that is to be charged to the debit card is $24.97. Hope this answer helps.
