Part 1.1

Write down Nontobeko's monthly gross salary in words?

The provided image is a retail receipt and does not contain any information regarding Nontobeko's monthly gross salary. Therefore, this question cannot be answered from the given information.

Part 1.2· 2 steps

Calculate the difference in prices for the pork sausages.

  1. Identify the prices of the pork sausages from the receipt.

    The receipt lists two entries for "BoxerPorkSausageP/kg".
    Price 1 = R 35.27
    Price 2 = R 32.48

  2. Calculate the difference.

    Difference=Price 1−Price 2\text{Difference} = \text{Price 1} - \text{Price 2} Difference=R 35.27−R 32.48\text{Difference} = \text{R } 35.27 - \text{R } 32.48 Difference=R 2.79\text{Difference} = \text{R } 2.79

    The difference in prices for the pork sausages is R 2.79.

Part 1.3· 2 steps

Arrange the prices of the 6 items in descending order.

  1. List all 6 item prices from the receipt.

    • BananaLooseCiss1p/kg: R 17.27
    • CrmbdChcknBurgrsp/kg: R 28.56
    • BoxerPorkSausageP/kg: R 35.27
    • BoxerPorkSausageP/kg: R 32.48
    • HallsStickPack10s Ex: R 12.99
    • Government24LbagEach: R 1.19

  2. Arrange the prices from highest to lowest (descending order).

    R 35.27, R 32.48, R 28.56, R 17.27, R 12.99, R 1.19\text{R } 35.27, \text{ R } 32.48, \text{ R } 28.56, \text{ R } 17.27, \text{ R } 12.99, \text{ R } 1.19

    The prices in descending order are: R 35.27, R 32.48, R 28.56, R 17.27, R 12.99, R 1.19.

Part 1.4· 2 steps

Write down the name of the second least expensive item on the receipt.

  1. List all 6 item prices in ascending order (lowest to highest).

    • Government24LbagEach: R 1.19
    • HallsStickPack10s Ex: R 12.99
    • BananaLooseCiss1p/kg: R 17.27

    • BoxerPorkSausageP/kg: R 32.48
    • BoxerPorkSausageP/kg: R 35.27

  2. Identify the least expensive and second least expensive items.

    The least expensive item is Government24LbagEach (R 1.19).
    The second least expensive item is HallsStickPack10s Ex (R 12.99).

Part 1.5· 2 steps

Round off the total paid to the nearest 10 rands?

  1. Identify the total paid from the receipt.

    The total paid is R 127.76.

  2. Round R 127.76 to the nearest 10 rands.

    To round to the nearest 10, look at the units digit. The units digit is 7.
    Since 7 is 5 or greater, we round up, meaning the tens digit increases by one, and the units digit becomes 0.

    R 127.76≈R 130.00\text{R } 127.76 \approx \text{R } 130.00

    The total paid rounded to the nearest 10 rands is R 130.00.
