Marissa bought 3 movies for $9.99 each and 2 video games for $14.99 each. These prices included tax. she gives the cashier $70.00. How much change should she receive?

The answer is $10.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the amount of $9.99 3 times. (since it is three games).

$9.99 + $9.99 + $9.99 = $29.97.

Then,

Add the 2 amounts of $14.99 (since there are 2 video games)

$14.99 + $14.99 = $29.98.

Since we are buying something, we need to add the totals to be able to know how much it all cost.

$29.97 + $29.98 = $59.59.

We the subtract the amout that is owed ($59.95) by the amount that was given ($70.00) to get $10.05 in change.

10.05

Step-by-step explanation:

9.99+9.99+9.99+14.99+14.99

=59.95

70-59.95

=10.05
