Answer:

She paid $25.96 in total

Explanation:

The tip was $3.96. When you convert the 18% to a decimal you get .18 then, you multiply the .18 to the $22 (22x .18= 3.96). Finally, you add how much the manicure was to the tip (22+3.96=25.96)

Answer:

$25.96

Explanation:

So Shawna's manicure was $22 dollars, and she left and 18% tip. In other words, she added 18%, or 0.18 to the total original price. We can represent this with an expression:


1.18 * 22

As she pays 100%, or 1, plus another 18%, or 0.18 to the original price of $22.

Thus her total amount was $25.96

Hope this helps!
