Question

Lisa is buying a shirt and a hat at the mall. The shirt costs $30.98, and the hat costs $20.01. If she gave the sales clerk $100.00, how much change should she receive (ignore sales tax)?

Answer 1

Answer:

$49.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa buys a shirt which is $30.98 dollars and a hat for $20.01 dollars. Let's start with adding those two together.

$30.98 + $20.01 = $50.99

If her shirt and hat costs $50.99 and she gives the cashier $100.00 you would subtract her total from what she gave her.

$100.00 - $50.99 = $49.01 dollars

Lisa would receive $49.01 dollars back.

Answer 2

$49.01 would be her change
