Colby took a taxi from the airport to his hotel in the city. His fare was $ 44.10 and he tipped the driver $ 8.00. How much change did Colby get back if he gave the driver a​ $100 bill?

1 answer

The total cost of the taxi ride and tip is $44.10 + $8.00 = $52.10.

If Colby gave the driver a $100 bill, he would receive change of $100 - $52.10 = $47.90.

Therefore, Colby would get back $47.90 in change.
