Question

Gabrielle bought 6 cupcakes that cost 95 cents each. She paid with 6 one-dollar bills. How much change did Gabrielle receive?

Answer 1

Answer:

30 cents

Explanation:

The six cupcakes cost $5.70 in total, because 0.95 x 6 is 5.7. 6 - 5.7 is 0.3, which is equivalent to 30 cents. You are subtracting 5.7 from 6 because Gabrielle paid 6 dollars, and $5.70 is the actual cost.
