Question

Vivian had a $5 bill, 3 quarters, 2 dime, and 5 nickels. She paid for a poster that cost $5.36. How much money does she have left

Answer 1

Answer:

84 cents left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 quarters equals 75 cents.

2 dimes equal 20 cents.

5 nickels equal 25 cents.

So, 75 cents (The quarters) plus the 25 cents (The nickels) equals 1 dollar. At the moment, you now have 6 dollars and 20 cents (The 5 dollars in bills plus the dollar in cents is 6 dollars, then add the dimes, which is 20 cents.). So, you subtract the $6.20 - $5.36. The answer is 0.84, or 84 cents left over.
