Let's do subtraction by first starting with the ones place and then the tenths place of the subtrahend.
45-4=41; 44, 43, 42, 41
41-.5= 40.5; 40.9, 40.8, 40.7, 40.6, 40.5
45-4.5=40.5
We can check by using addition.
40.5+4.5=
44+1=
45

Each year lizzy e's school purchases students agenda books, which are sold in the school store.This year, the school purchased 3

notsponge [240]

In order to make back the money they spent ($1,137.50) plus $1500, they want to make $1137.5+1500=2637.5$ $2,637.50 total.

They want to make this amount by selling 350 agendas, so divide the amount they want to make by 350 to find the amount per book:
$2637.5/350=7.54$
I rounded the answer to the nearest hundredth because the hundredth is the smallest amount we have in USD (the penny.)
So they need to charge at least $7.54 to make back their money plus $1500.

Hope I helped, and let me know if you have any questions :)
