Answer: $3.68

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of CD = $17

cost of a pair of shoes = $30

cost of a pair of jeans = $25

Total cost of products bought = $17 + $30 + $25 = $72

Tax on products bought = 6%

= 6/100 x $72

= $4.32

New cost of products after tax =

$72 + $4.32

= $76.32

Money given to cashier = $80

change received = $80 - $76.32

= $3.68
