Dan went to the mall on saturday to buy clothes . he paid $8.49 on shorts and $5.82 on a jacket with a $20 dollar bill. how much money did dan pay in change ?

The amount paid in change after a $20 bill as change is $5.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount paid for shorts = $8.49

The amount paid for jacket  = $5.82

Now, total amount that has to be paid  = Amount for shorts + Amount for jacket

= $8.49 + $5.82 = $14.31

⇒The purchased items cost $14.31 in total.

Now, the bill paid = $20

So, the returned amount  = Total amount paid - cost  of the items purchased

= $20  - $14.31

= $5.69

Hence the amount paid in change after a $20 bill as change is $5.69

i get you, what you should do is think of the positive things that would come out of it. it will make yours parents proud and raise your grade. you should always try and if you can't focus tell the teacher.
