the picture shows how much money aaron has in his jacket pocket. if he uses $1.12 to buy a soda, how much money does he have left?

Answer

# Answer: $7.33 # Explanation: ## Step1: Calculate total money initially The bills are a $5 bill and 3 one - dollar bills, so $5 + 3\times1=8$ dollars. The 5 dimes are worth $5\times0.1 = 0.5$ dollars and the 5 pennies are worth $5\times0.01=0.05$ dollars. The total initial amount is $8 + 0.5+0.05 = 8.55$ dollars. ## Step2: Subtract money spent Subtract the $1.12$ spent on soda: $8.55−1.12 = 7.43$ dollars.
