To find the dollar amount of the change, you need to subtract the cost of the item from Sam's initial amount of money.

Sam initially has 5 dollars. The item he buys costs 4.28 dollars.

To find the change, subtract the cost of the item from the initial amount of money:
Change = Initial amount of money - Cost of item

Change = 5 dollars - 4.28 dollars = 0.72 dollars

Therefore, the dollar amount of the change is 0.72 dollars.
