Not sure what answer your needing so here is a breakdown of the amounts.
3 bracelets times $5 equals $15
How much is each necklace?
Subtract $15 from $40 you have $25 left. Then you divide $25 by 3 you get each necklace costs $8.33 so three necklaces cost $24.99
When you add $15 from the bracelets and $24.99 from the necklaces your total is $39.99 that’s why Megan gave the clerk $40
Hope this helps
