Question

Julio bought 4 tickets to the circus for $12.50 each. He also bought a souvenir for his
son for $4.75. If Julio pays for the tickets and the souvenir with a $100 bill, how
much change will he receive?

Answer 1

Find the total he spent and subtract that from 100:

12.50 x 4 = 50

50 + 4.75 = $54.75 total spent

100-54.75 = $45.25 change

Answer 2

He would receive $45.25
Example:
12.50 * 4 = $50 + $4.75 = $54.75
100 - $54.75 = $45.25
