Question

Martin goes to purchase a new school bag in a shop where the price displayed on the bag is $15.264 . How much does he need to pay to purchase the bag?

• A. 15 dollars and 26.4 cents
  
• B. 15 dollars and 24.6 cents
  
• C. 15 dollars and 62.4 cents
  
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A 15 dollars and 26.4 cents



$\$\frac{2}{10}=20\text{cents}$

$\$\frac{6}{100}=6\text{cents}$

$\$\frac{4}{1000}=0.4\text{cents}$

$\therefore$ Total cents $=20+6+0.4=26.4\text{cents}$
Total dollars $=\$15$

Martin needs to pay 15 dollars and 26.4 cents.
