    Answer: $244.83

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First find the original amount spent on dvds:

    $12.95 * 4 = $51.80

    Then, the sales tax (6.5% is converted to decimal form by dividing by 100):

    $51.80 * 0.065 = $3.367

    Add the sales tax to the original amount to get the total amount spent:

    $51.80 + $3.367 = $55.167

    Round to the nearest hundredth:

    $55.167 - > $55.17

    Subtract the total amount from the money received for his birthday:

    $300 - $55.17 = $244.83
