Question

Nicholas bought 24 feet of fabric at a fabric store. The fabric cost $1.35 per foot, including sales tax. If Nicholas paid with a $50 bill, how much change should he have received?

A. $26.00 B. $32.40 C. $17.60 D. $48.6

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

Because 24*1.34 =32.4 so 50-32.4=17.6

Answer 2

She will receive c. $17.60 change

Explanation:

To get the amount of change Nicholas will received, we will first have to find out the cost of 24 feet fabric and then subtract it from the amount she paid.

To find the cost of 24 feet fabric;

from the question 1 foot cost $1.35, then 24 feet will cost: 24 × $1.35=$32.40

The cost of 24 feet fabric is $32.40

We were told that Nicholas paid with a $50 bill, to get the amount of change he will received, we will simply subtract $32.40 from $50. That is;

$50 - $32.40 = $17.60

Therefore, Nicholas will receive a change of $17.60
