Question

time to pay for her two items, she gave the cashier $40. How much change will she get back?(1 point)
$24.01
$4.01
$20.00
$35.99

Answer 1

To find out how much change Kay will get back, you first need to calculate the total cost of her items:

1. Cost of the shirt: $15.99
2. Cost of the skirt: $20.00

Total cost = $15.99 + $20.00 = $35.99

Now, Kay paid $40. To find the change, subtract the total cost from the amount she paid:

Change = $40 - $35.99 = $4.01

So, Kay will get back $4.01.
