Question

The cost of Bella's dinner is $24. She decides to leave a 15% tip. Which proportion could be used to determine the amount of the tip? What is the cost of the meal with the tip?

Answer 1

Bonjour

24 * 15 = 360

360 : 100 = 3.60

tip = 3$ 60 cents

meal + tip = 360 + 3.60

total = 363 $ 60 cents

Answer 2

$24 * 0.15 = $3.60 (tip)

$24 * 1.15 = $27.60 (total cost of meal, including the tip)
