Question

Erin buys 2 packs of potatoes costing £2 each, 3 packs of carrots for £3 per pack, and 3 turnips costing 60p each.
If she pays with a £20 note, how much change would she get in pounds, £

Answer 1

Answer:

  £5.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The change is the difference between the amount tendered and the amount owed. The total amount owed is the sum of the costs for each of the items purchased.

  change = £20 - 2(£2) - 3(£3) -3(£0.60) = £20 -14.80 = £5.20

Erin gets £5.20 in change.
