Question

a group of friends goes out to breakfast.the total bill,excluding tax,is $33.if tax on the meal is %7 and if a 15% tip is left on the $33 total bill,then the total amount paid for the meal is?

Answer 1

Your final answer would be $40.26

Explanation

First, calculate 7% of $33, to do this, you can divide 33 by 100, which is 0.33, then multiply 0.33 by 7 to get 2.31.

So the 7% tax would be $2.31.

Next, calculate 15% of $33 to find how much they tipped. Divide 33 by 100 which is 0.33, then multiply 0.33 by 15 which is 4.95.

So their 15% tip is $4.95.

Lastly, add the tax, tip, and total bill excluding tax.

2.31+4.95=7.26, then 7.26+33=40.26

Making their grand total $40.26
