D $5.36
To find out how much change Maria should receive, we first need to calculate the total cost of her order.
She ordered 4 cinnamon rolls, so the cost of the cinnamon rolls is 4 * $2.59 = $<<4*2.59=10.36>>10.36.
She also ordered a dozen doughnuts, which cost $0.95 each. A dozen is 12, so the cost of the dozen doughnuts is 12 * $0.95 = $<<12*0.95=11.40>>11.40.
She also ordered a dozen doughnut holes, which cost $1.75 per dozen. So the cost of the dozen doughnut holes is $1.75.
Adding up all the costs, the total cost of her order is $10.36 + $11.40 + $1.75 = $<<10.36+11.4+1.75=23.51>>23.51.
Additionally, she paid $1.88 in sales tax.
So, the total amount she paid is $23.51 + $1.88 = $25.39.
Finally, to find the change she should receive from a $50 bill, we subtract the total amount she paid from the $50 bill: $50 - $25.39 = $<<50-25.39=24.61>>24.61.
Therefore, Maria should receive $24.61 in change. Option A is the correct answer.
To find out how much change Maria should receive from a $50 bill, we need to calculate the total cost of her order and subtract it from $50.
First, let's calculate the cost of each item Maria ordered:
- 4 cinnamon rolls at $2.59 each: 4 * $2.59 = $10.36
- 1 dozen doughnuts at $0.95 each: 1 * $0.95 = $0.95
- 1 dozen doughnut holes at $1.75 per dozen: $1.75
Now, let's calculate the total cost of Maria's order:
Total cost = cost of cinnamon rolls + cost of doughnuts + cost of doughnut holes
Total cost = $10.36 + $0.95 + $1.75 = $12.06
Next, we need to add the sales tax of $1.88 to the total cost:
Total cost with tax = total cost + sales tax
Total cost with tax = $12.06 + $1.88 = $13.94
Finally, we subtract the total cost with tax from the $50 bill to find the change Maria should receive:
Change = $50 - total cost with tax
Change = $50 - $13.94 = $36.06
Therefore, Maria should receive $36.06 in change from a $50 bill.
To calculate Maria's change, we need to add up the prices of all the items she ordered, calculate the total cost including tax, and subtract that from the $50 bill.
1. Number of cinnamon rolls: 4
Price per cinnamon roll: $2.59
Total cost of cinnamon rolls: 4 x $2.59 = $10.36
2. Number of doughnuts: 1 dozen
Price per doughnut: $0.95
Total cost of doughnuts: 12 x $0.95 = $11.40
3. Number of doughnut holes: 1 dozen
Price per dozen doughnut holes: $1.75
Total cost of doughnut holes: 1 x $1.75 = $1.75
4. Subtotal of all items: $10.36 + $11.40 + $1.75 = $23.51
5. Sales tax: $1.88
6. Total cost including tax: $23.51 + $1.88 = $25.39
Now, we can calculate Maria's change from a $50 bill:
Change = $50 - $25.39 = $24.61
Therefore, Maria should receive a change of $24.61 (Option A).
