To calculate the total amount charged to your debit card, let's break down the costs:
-
Cost of gasoline:
- Gallons: 10.75
- Price per gallon: $3.60
- Total cost of gasoline = 10.75 gallons × $3.60/gallon = $38.70
-
Cost of the cookie:
- Cookie cost = $1.25
-
Cost of windshield wiper fluid:
- Wiper fluid cost = $4.97
-
Calculate the food tax on the cookie:
- Food tax = 4% of the cookie cost
- Food tax = 0.04 × $1.25 = $0.05
-
Total cost of items purchased (including tax):
- Total cost = Cost of gasoline + Cost of cookie + Cost of windshield wiper fluid + Food tax
- Total cost = $38.70 + $1.25 + $4.97 + $0.05 = $44.97
-
Amount paid with cash:
- Cash given to the clerk = $20.00
-
Amount charged to the debit card:
- Amount charged = Total cost - Cash given
- Amount charged = $44.97 - $20.00 = $24.97
Therefore, the amount charged to your debit card is $24.97.
