Respuesta :

gina spent $3.45 in total. amy spent $3.43 in total. so gina spent more money and she spent 2 cents more

Answer:

Gina spent more money, she spent 2 more cents than Amy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gina:     1.38x2=$2.76    1.38/2=69 cents

2.76+69= $3.45

Amy:     0.98x3=$2.94   0.98/2=49 cents

2.94+49= $3.43
