Question

At a restaurant, Lana gets a bill that is $40 for the food plus a 5% sales tax. Lana decides to tip 20% on the total bill. How much will Lana pay in total?

Answer 1

$50.40

Explanation:

To find how much Lana will pay in total follow these steps.

First, multiply 40 by 1.05.

40×1.05=42.

This is how much she will pay for the food plus tax.

Now, multiply 42 by 1.2.

42×1.2=50.40

This is how much she will pay for the food, tax, and tip.

Lana will pay a total of $50.40.

Hope this helps!
