1. **State the problem:** Maria bought 4 cinnamon rolls, 12 doughnuts, and 12 doughnut holes. We need to find how much change she receives from a 50 bill after including a sales tax of 1.68. 2. **List the prices:** - Cinnamon roll: 0.95 - Doughnut: 2.59 - Doughnut holes (1 dozen): 1.75 3. **Calculate the total cost before tax:** - Cost of 4 cinnamon rolls: $4 \times 2.59 = 10.36$ - Cost of 12 doughnuts: $12 \times 0.95 = 11.40$ - Cost of 12 doughnut holes: $1.75$ (already for 1 dozen) 4. **Sum the costs:** $$10.36 + 11.40 + 1.75 = 23.51$$ 5. **Add sales tax:** $$23.51 + 1.68 = 25.19$$ 6. **Calculate change from 50:** $$50 - 25.19 = 24.81$$ **Final answer:** Maria should receive $24.81 in change.
