Clayton purchased cassette tapes for $56. The sales tax was $3.16.

He gave the salesperson $60. How much change did he receive?

1 answer

The total cost of the cassette tapes including sales tax is:

$56 + $3.16 = $59.16

Clayton gave the salesperson $60, so his change is:

$60 - $59.16 = $0.84

Therefore, Clayton received $0.84 in change.
