Gina can trade empty bottles for money at the grocery store. She returned a few bottles worth $0.10 each and 6 bottles worth $0.05 each . The clerk paid Gina $0.80 for all of the bottles . How many bottles worth $0.10 did Gina return?

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

a total of $0.80 was paid

6 $0.05 bottles were returned= $0.05×6= $0.30

remainder= $0.80-$0.30= $0.50

amount of $0.10 bottles returned= $0.50÷$0.10= 5
