Question

Andrew and Kate have $30 to spend on dinner, tax, and gratuity at Mo’s Restaurant. Tax is 6%, and they will give a 15% tip on the total bill after taxes. Their dinner costs $21.00. Which statement correctly explains whether Andrew and Kate have enough money to pay their bill?

Answer 1

$21 times .06 = $1.26 in taxes and $21 times .15 = $3.15 in tip so you add $21+ 1.26 + 3.15 = $25.41
