Amy's mother ordered a pizza to be delivered to their home. The bill for the pizza was $18. She gave the delivery man a 15% tip. How much was the tip?

First you want to change 15% to a decimal, 0.15 now you just multiply $18 by 0.15 and you will get 2.7 which is $2.70. The tip is $2.70

18x.15=2.70
2.70+18=$20.70
