Question

Dylan's mother gets a restaurant bill for $25. She has a coupon for 15% off. After the discount is applied, she adds 20% tip for the server. What is the total that Dylan's mom will pay at the restaurant?

Answer 1

Given:

Amount of bill = $25

Coupon = 15% off

Tip = 20% after discount is applied.

To find:

The total that Dylan's mom will pay at the restaurant.

Solution:

We have,

Amount of bill = $25

Discount = 15%

Amount after discount = 25 - 15% of 25

`=25-(15)/(100)* 25`

`=25-3.75`

`=21.25`

So, amount after discount is $21.25.

Tip = 20%

Total Amount = Amount after discount + Tip

`\text{Total Amount}=21.25+(20)/(100)* 21.25`

`\text{Total Amount}=21.25+4.25`

`\text{Total Amount}=25.5`

Therefore, Dylan's mom will pay total $25.5 at the restaurant.
