The total cost of the haircut including the tip is $20.70. 18*15%=2.70+18=20.7.

Hope this helps:)

Answer:

$20.70

Explanation:

Turn the % to a decimal.

15%= 15/100 = 0.15

Multiply the total and decimal.

18.00 x 0.15

= 2.70

Add the total to the sum.

18.00 + 2.70

= 20.70

(hope it helped please vote and say thanks <3)
