Question

If a newspaper costs $0.60 and you only have $5.00 in quarters, how many cents would you lose out on because the vending machine doesn't give back any change?

Answer 1

Explanation:

500 / 4 = 20 quarters we have

for the newspaper we will put only 3 quarters to machine

3 * 25 = 75 cents

75 - 60 = 15 cents lose

still we have 17 quarters
