Question

Diego went to a restaurant, and his dinner bill was $24. He paid a total of $28.32.

Which equation will help find the percent tip (in decimals), x, that Diego gave the server?

Answer 1

Answer: B. 24 - 24 x r = 4.32

Explanation:

The percent tip can be found by using the formula: tip = bill x (tip percentage in decimal form)

In this case, Diego's bill was $24 and the tip he paid was $4.32. To find the tip percentage, we can divide the tip by the bill:

tip / bill = 4.32 / 24 = 0.18

To convert the decimal to a percentage, we can multiply the decimal by 100: 0.18 x 100 = 18%

The tip percentage is 18%

So, option B. 24 - 24 x r = 4.32 is the equation that will help find the percent tip that Diego gave the server.
