Answer:

If Luca wants to leave a 16% tip on the total amount including the tax, he should pay $32.24.

Explanation:

First, you have to calculate the 4% of the bill and add that amount to the total of the bill to determine the total amount including the tax:

193.75¨*4%=7.75

193.75+7.75=201.5

Now, you have to calculate 16% of the amount including the tax:

201.5*16%=32.24

According to this, the answer is that if Luca wants to leave a 16% tip on the total amount including the tax, he should pay $32.24.
