onto the basic price of meals. How much do
I pay for a meal with a basic price of £8.50?

Answer 1

Tip: $1.02

Total: $9.52

Explanation:

Answer 2

Overall price after service charge is 9.53

Explanation:

8.5 is 10 percent

0.85 is one percent

0.85 multiplied by 2 is 1.70

Add the percentages together and you have 1.03

Then you add that onto the price of the original meal
