Answer:
The answer to your question is $36
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Total money = $50
2 gallons of milk = $3
a loaf of bread = $2
a dozen of eggs = $3
Write an equation to solve this problem
Cost of 2 gallons of milk + a loaf of bread + 3 dozens of eggs + remainder = total cost
Substitution
$3 + $2 + 3($3) + remainder = $50
Simplification
3 + 2 + 9 + remainder = 50
remainder = 50 - 3 - 2 - 9
result
remainder = $36
