Kyle bought 6 lb of chocolate fudge every half pound of chocolate fudge cost $2.85 after paying the cashier he received $5.80 in change how much money did Kyle give the cashier



Answer :

First, calculate the total cost of the chocolate fudge:

- Kyle bought 6 pounds of chocolate fudge.

- Each half-pound costs $2.85.

- There are 2 half-pounds in each pound.

So, the total cost is:

6 pounds} \times 2 \times 2.85 = 12 \times 2.85 = 34.20

The total cost of the fudge is $34.20.

Next, since Kyle received $5.80 in change, we can find out how much he gave the cashier by adding the change to the total cost:

Amount Kyle gave the cashier = 34.20 + 5.80 = 40.00

Kyle gave the cashier $40.00.
