The cost for the meal was:

$32.38

Since they gave a tip of 20%, we need to calculate how much is 20% of $32.38 and then add that to the cost of the dinner.

Calculating 20%.

We multiply the amount $32.38 by 20%:


20percent=(20)/(100)
$32.38$*(20)/(100)=(32.38*20)/(100)=6.476

The tip of 20% was $6.476

Thus, the total cost of their bill will be:


32.38+6.475=38.856

Answer: $38.856
