Question

Alberto is a waiter. He waits on a table of 4 whose bill comes to $110.05. If Alberto receives a 15% tip, about how much will he receive?

Answer 1

If you would like to know how much money will Alberto receive, you can calculate this using the following steps:

15% of $110.05 = 15% * 110.05 = 15/100 * 110.05 = $16.51

Result: Alberto will receive $16.51.

Answer 2

' 15% ' means 0.15 .

0.15 of $110.05 = $16.5075 .

Alberto will receive about $16.50 .

We didn't need to know how many people were at the table.
