  1. A cashier is given the following instructions: give change for amounts under $5 in coins, amounts $5–$20 in bills, and amounts over $20 in a mix. A customer is owed $7.50. What form should the change take?

    Answer: Bills only

    $7.50 falls in the $5–$20 range, so change should be given in bills.

  5. A rule states: approve requests submitted on weekdays before 3 PM; deny all others. A request arrives on Wednesday at 4:15 PM. What is the correct action?
