Question

Find the total to the nearest cent $24 lunch 15% tip# show work

Answer 1

$27.60

Explanation:

First, we need to find how much the tip is:

we can convert 15% directly to a decimal:

15% = 0.15

Then we find :

15% of 24 = 0.15 x 24 = 3.59999999999999

3.599999999999999 to the nearest cent is 3.60

Then we add the tip to the original bill:

3.60 + 24 = 27.60

So the total cost of the lunch is $27.60
