Asked by itsamandaaaa

Answer (2)

so 10.38 gal at 2.289 oer gal but you want american mony so round 2.289 to two decimal places so 2.29 per gallon
2.29 times 10.38=23.7702 but you just cross out the '2' in the ten-thousanth's place because 1/50 of a cent is really small
it is not possible to pay 9/10 of a cent so they just want you to round it up to 1 cent or10/10 cent

To determine the total cost of gasoline for 10.38 gallons at $2.289 per gallon, round the price to $2.29. Then, calculate the total cost as approximately $23.77, after rounding appropriately for currency use.
