May is buying a fridge for 1368.25 which includes taxes and delivery she pays 497.80 in cash and will write a check for the balance how much should she write the check? A. 1866.05 b. 870.35 c. 870.45 d. 971.45

Answer 1

To determine how much May should write the check for, we need to subtract the cash payment from the total cost of the fridge.

Total cost of the fridge: $1368.25
Cash payment: $497.80

Now, we subtract the cash payment from the total cost:

\[ \text{Balance} = \text{Total cost} - \text{Cash payment} \] \[ \text{Balance} = 1368.25 - 497.80 = 870.45 \]

May should write the check for $870.45.

So, the correct answer is c. 870.45.
