Question

Mother bought 3 cans of sardines at ₱17.80 each, 5 cans of milk at ₱38.85 each, 3kg sugar at ₱60.50 each, and 2 cans of corn beef at ₱78.85 each. Find the total amount bought. If she paid ₱500 bill, find her change.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount is:

• 3*17.80 + 5*38.85 + 3*60.50 + 2*78.85 = 586.85

If the numbers are correct ₱500 won't be enough as the total amount exceeds it.

Answer 2

Question:

Mother bought 3 cans of sardines at ₱17.80 each, 5 cans of milk at ₱38.85 each, 3kg sugar at ₱60.50 each, and 2 cans of corn beef at ₱78.85 each. Find the total amount bought. If she paid ₱500 bill, find her change.

Statement:

Mother bought 3 cans of sardines at ₱17.80 each, 5 cans of milk at ₱38.85 each, 3kg sugar at ₱60.50 each, and 2 cans of corn beef at ₱78.85 each.

Solution:

The total amount for which she had brought the items

= ₱ (3×17.80 + 5×38.85 + 3×60.50 + 2×78.85)

= ₱ (53.40 + 194.25 + 181.50 + 157.70)

= ₱ 586.85

Answer:

The total amount for which she had brought the items is ₱ 586.85.

I cannot solve the second part of the sum because the amount exceeds ₱ 500.

Hope it helps
