47.Joseph bought four books at a book sale. Each book
cost $4.50. He paid with $20.00. How much change
did he receive?
SOLUTION:
To find the cost of four books, multiply the number of
books by the cost for each book.
4×4.50=18.00
So, the four books cost $18.00.
To find the amount of change he received, subtract
the cost of the books from the amount that Joseph
paid.
20 – 18 = 2
So, Joseph received $2.00 in change.

47.Joseph bought four books at a book sale. Each book
cost $4.50. He paid with $20.00. How much change
did he receive?
SOLUTION:
To find the cost of four books, multiply the number of
books by the cost for each book.
4×4.50=18.00
So, the four books cost $18.00.
To find the amount of change he received, subtract
the cost of the books from the amount that Joseph
paid.
20 – 18 = 2
So, Joseph received $2.00 in change.
ANSWER:
$2.00
48.Mrs. Tanner paid $18.00 for six boxes of pencils.
How much did each box of pencils cost?
