Answer :
The customer gave you:
-- $100
-- $5 winning ticket
-- $2 winning ticket
Total . . . $107
You gave the customer:
-- $17.01 in the form of gas
-- $5 in the form of a $5 lottery ticket
-- $2 in the form of two $1 lottery tickets
-- $3 in the form of a $3 lottery ticket
Total . . . $27.01
In order to be even, you must give the customer another
($107 - $27.01) = $79.99 in change
-- $100
-- $5 winning ticket
-- $2 winning ticket
Total . . . $107

($107 - $27.01) = $79.99 in change
He would receive $79.99 in change.
First, you should add together what he's spending:
17.01 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 3 = 27.01.
This is the total that he owes. Now, you should add together the winning tickets:
5 + 2 = 7.
Since he owes $27.01 and won $7, you should subtract 7 from his total:
27.01 - 7 = 20.01.
This is now his total. If he receives change from a $100 bill, then you subtract the total from 100:
100 - 20.01 = 79.99.
