Camilla Best · Answer 1

If he spent the 35 cents, he gets $2.28 in change.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Add 2.37 and 0.35 because that's the amount of money he spent. The answer is 2.72.

2) Subtract 2.72 from 5 to get the amount of change. The answer is 2.28.

3) Add the label: your final answer is $2.28

Amari · Answer 2

The answer is 1.28 because you add 2.37+35 then subtract that from $5
