Carl and Rita ate breakfast at the local diner. Their bill came to $11.48. They gave their waitress a tip that was 25% of the bill. How much money did they give the waitress for her tip?

Converting percentage to a decimal:
25% = 25 / 100 = 0.25

What is 25% of 11.48
= 25% * 11.48
= 0.25 * 11.48
= 2.87
