While shopping at the school bookstore, ric purchased 4 book covers for $1.25 each , and a pen that cost 2/5 as much as the book cover. what amount of change did ric receive if he paid for his purchase with a $10 bill.

Ric received $3.00 of change. First, you multiply 4 by $1.25 to get $5.00. Then, the pen cost $2.00 because 2 is 2/5 of 5. Next, you add 2 and 5 together to get $7.00. Lastly, you subtract 7 from 10 ($10.00-$7.00) to get your change, $3.00. Hope it helps :)
