Answer:

Therefore, we conclude that the amount of an 18% tip on the food total is $8.19.

Explanation:

We know that bill for a food is $45,50. We calculate the amount of an 18% tip on the food total. Therefore, we use the proportion to calculate the required 18%. We get

45.5:100%=x:18%

100·x=45.5·18

100x=819

x=819/100

x=8.19

Therefore, we conclude that the amount of an 18% tip on the food total is $8.19.
