Answer:

Percent of bill that was tip = 15%

Explanation:

Tip = 90 cent

Price of meal = $6.00

Converting dollar to cent

1 cent = 1/100 dollar

90 cent = 90/100 dollar = 0.9 dollar

Percent of bill that was tip = Tip/Price of meal * 100

Percent of bill that was tip= 0.9/6 * 100%

Percent of bill that was tip = 15%
