And she will miss three classes during her vacation.

Semester parking pass cost $41.50 and daily basis parking cost$1.75 per day.

Formula used:

To add two decimal numbers use the steps:

Step 1: Align the decimal points vertically.

Step 2: Put 0 at the empty places to make the number of digits after and decimal point equal.

Step 3: Perform subtractions from right to left and keep decimal point aligned.

To multiply the decimal numbers, follow steps:

Step 1: Ignore the decimal point and multiply the number as the numbers are whole numbers now.

Step 2: Calculate the number of digits after the decimal point in multiplier and multiplicand.

Step 3: Now place the decimal point in the answer in such a way that the number of digits after the decimal place equal to number calculate in step 2.

Step 4: Put 0 at left if necessary to make correct number of digit after the decimal point.

Calculation:

Consider the price of daily basis parking as \$1...
