The 6% sales tax on the cost of Jennifer’s meal is $4.10. If she wants to leave the server a tip that is 18% or the cost of the meal only, how much money should she leave for the tip?

cost of meal (before tax)
= $4.10/0.06 = $68.33 (dayum)

18% of $68.33 = $12.30

she leaves $12.30 for tip

this one is a bit weird
