Question

Amy pays $1.71 in postage to mail a CD to a friend. She uses 41-cent stamps and 6-cent stamps. How many of each stamp did Amy use?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 41-cent stamps and 8 6-cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe she used 3 41-cent stamps (which is $1.23) with $0.48 leftover which we can use $0.06 to get rid of. We need to use 8 of the $0.06 stamps.
