Complete the statements to determine how much Mr. Hudson spent at the restaurant. The amount of Mr. Hudson's bill after the 15% discount was $ . Mr. Hudson left $ for a tip. Mr. Hudson spent $ at the restaurant.

Answer 1

Amount of bill after discount = $55.25

Amount of tip left = $13

Total money spent at the restaurant = $68.25

Explanation:

Original bill amount of Mr. Hudson = $65

Discount card value = 15% of the bill

Tip offered = 20% of the original amount

To find:

Amount of bill after the discount of 15%.

Amount of tip left.

Total amount spent in the restaurant.

Solution:

Let us apply the percentage here to find the values of total discount, total tip offered.

Discount = 15% of $65

`\Rightarrow (15)/(100) * 65 = \$9.75`

Amount of bill after discount = $65 - $9.75 = $55.25

Amount of tip left = 20% of $65

`\Rightarrow (20)/(100) * 65 = \$13`

Total money spent at the restaurant = Amount of bill after discount + tip offered = $55.25 + $13 = $68.25

The answers are:

Amount of bill after discount = $55.25

Amount of tip left = $13

Total money spent at the restaurant = $68.25
