Which estimate is most reasonable? michaela purchases a box of cereal for $3.95, chicken for $5.99, orange juice for $2.10, and a loaf of bread for $1.05. she has $15 with her. about how much change should she expect to receive?

Hi there!

She should expect about $2.00 of change.

Hope this helps ;)

Hi! :)

All we have to do here is some rounding, subtraction, and addition. First, round these numbers to the nearest whole number. 

$3.95=4

$5.99=6

$2.10=2

$1.05=1

Next, add all these together

4+6+2+1=13

Then subtract 13 from 15 and that should be approximately how much change she should get. 

15-13=2

Approx. change back: $2

Hope this helps!
