Question

Cindy bought 4 lunch specials for $7 each. She gave the cashier $40. How much change should Cindy receive?

Answer 1

`$12`

Explanation:

The price of the lunch specials was `$7` each, and she bought `4`, so the price of her meals should be
`($7)*(4)=$28`.
Since she gave the cashier `$40`, she should recieve the difference of `$40` and `$28`, or `$40-$28`, which equals `$12`.
