Answer:

Each would pay $20.94

Explanation:

Step 1: Find the total for the bill including the tip.

The bill is $52.35. To calculate 20% of this, multiply by 0.2 (or 20/100)

The tip is ($52.35)(0.2) = $10.47

Step 2: Add the tip to the total bill.

$52.35 + $10.47 = $62.82

Step 3: Divide the total bill by the number of people splitting the bill, in this case, 3

$62.82/3 = $20.94 per person
