Question

Dinner costs 75 cents. Mr Albie pays 5 dollars. How much change does he get back?

• A. 4 dollars 25 cents
• B. 4 dollars 35 cents
• C. 4 dollars 40 cents
• D. 4 dollars 45 cents

Answer 1

The correct option is A 4 dollars 25 cents


Money Mr Albie has = 5 dollars
Cost of dinner = 75 cents
1 dollar = 100 cents
5 dollars = 4 dollars + 1 dollar
= 400 cents + 100 cents
Change Mr Albie gets back
= 100 cents - 75 cents
= 25 cents
= 4 dollars + 25 cents
= 4 dollars 25 cents
