Answer 2

$50.74.

Explanation:

We are asked to find the total cost of dinner, when gratuity is 18%.

The total cost of the dinner would be $43 plus 18% of $43.

`\text{The total cost of the dinner}=\$43+(18)/(100)* \$43`

`\text{The total cost of the dinner}=\$43+0.18* \$43`

`\text{The total cost of the dinner}=\$43+\$7.74`

`\text{The total cost of the dinner}=\$50.74`

Therefore, the total cost of dinner is $50.74.
