Question

Ms. Courtney took all the 7th grade teachers out to dinner. The total bill was $156.22. She left a 20% tip. How much did the meal cost in all? *

Answer 1

$187.46

Explanation:

156.22 x .2 = 31.244

So she left $31.24(4) as a tip, so if we add that to $156.22 then you get the total cost.

156.22 + 31.244 = 187.464

$187.46

Hope that makes sense!
