Question

Cheryl bought a shirt for $42 and sweater for$30. Write a numerical expression that represents the change Cheryl received from four $20 bills

Answer 1

Answer:

$Change = \ 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Bills = 20\ bills$ (4)

$Shirt = \ 42$

$Sweater= \ 30$

Required

The change

First, we determine the amount paid,

To do this, multiply the number of bills by the worth of each bill.

So, we have:

$Amount = 4 * \ 20$

$Amount = \ 80$

Next, calculate the worth if item bought

$Items = \ 42 + \ 30$

$Items = \ 72$

Subtract the items from the amount to get the change.

$Change = \ 80 - \ 72$

$Change = \ 8$
