You're welcome.

To find out how much change Vernon should have received, we'll need to calculate the total amount he paid and subtract it from the cost of the groceries. Here's how you can calculate it step by step:

1. Determine the total amount Vernon paid for his groceries: Vernon paid using five $50 bills, so the total amount he paid is 5 x $50 = $250.

2. Calculate the change by subtracting the total amount paid from the cost of the groceries: Change = Total amount paid - Cost of groceries

Change = $250 - $229.06

3. Subtracting these two amounts will give us the final result:
Change = $20.94

Therefore, Vernon should have received $20.94 as change.
