Kenyon Ewing · Answer 1

She paid $3.30 for the first one, $4.95 for the second one, and $6.60 for the last one.

(All of the answers are rounded to the nearest hundreth.)

To get those answers you would have have to turn 33% into a decimal. You would have to move the decimal 2 spaces back and you would end up with 0.33%. Then, you would multiply 0.33 with each of the prices. If you need to know how much she spent in all, she spent $14.85 in all.
