The farmer bought 2.5 sacks of fertilizer for $2.20 per sack and 4.5 sacks of essential soil for $1.80 for each sack from the supplier. If he gave a $15 bill to the supplier, how much would his change be?

$0.50 or 50 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

If he bought 2 and a half sacks of fertilizer for $2.20 that means u multiply 2.20 2 and a half times so first lets divide 2.20 by 2 to find the solution of the "0.5" which is 1.10

2.20 times 2 equals 4.40 then we add the 1.10 so 4.40 plus 1.10 is $5.50.

For the 4.5 sacks of 1.80 we will do the same technique half o 1.80 is 90 cents so 0.90 and 4.5 times 1.80 is $8.10 we then add the 90 cents making it $9.

We then add the 2 totals of $9 and $5.50 which equals $14.50, the change would be 50 cents which in decimal form would be $0.50
