Week 13 - #1

Nash bought four boxes of candy hearts for Valentines Day. He spent $1.69 per box of hearts. If he gave the clerk a $20.00 bill and there is no sales tax, how much change should he get back?

  1. First you take how much the candy hearts are and times that number by four. $1.69 x 4 = $6.76 , that means all the candy hearts cost $6.76 . Then we subtract $6.76 from the twenty dollar bill. $20.00 - $6.76 = $13.24 , so the change that he got was $13.24 total without tax.
