Wendy and two friends went out to eat and decided they would split the bill. The total bill was 35.40. They also decided to leave a 20% tip. What is the price that each person paid?

Answer:

14.16

Explanation:

we first calculate the total amount of money paid, which is 35.40 plus 20%, we use this calculation:

35.40×1.20 = 42.48

now, this amount is split to 3 people, so:

42.48/3 = 14.16

and that is our answer
