Answer:

The answer to the question: How much should she receive in change?

C. $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add the amount of money she gives the sales clerk.

  • 2 fifty-dollar bills= 2*$50= $100
  • 7 ten-dollar bills = 7*$10 =   $70
  • 12 one-dollar bills =12*$1=   $12

Money paid by cynthia= $100 + $70 + $12 = $182

The money she should receive in change is the subtraction between Money paid by cynthia ($182) and  electric heater value ($181.25).

Change = $182 - $181.25

Change = $0.75
