its a 10 point question

Answer 1

So the host take 25% of the earnings. So the waitress would get 256 - 64 = 192. So C is you answer!

Answer 2

Answer: At the end of their next shift the waitress will earn $ 192.00

Explanation:

Given average of tips = $ 60.00

Share of waitress = $45.00

Share of hostess = $15.00

Clearly % share of waitress =
`(45)/(60)* 100`

=
`(4500)/(60)`

= 75 %

Now we have to find the share of waitress in $ 256.00

= 75 % of 256.00

=
`(75)/(100)* 256`

=
`(19200)/(100)`

= 192

The waitress will receive $192.00
