Question

"Jade and Jackson go to Cracker Barrel and order $62.60 worth of food. They want to tip their waiter 20%. They also have to pay a tax of 5% on the original bill. What is the final cost of the meal?"

I just need help please!!!!!!

Answer 1

78.25

Explanation:

First find the tip.

62.60 * 20%

62.60*.2 = 12.52

Then find the tax

62.60 * 5%

62.60 * .05

3.13

Now add the cost of the food, tip, and tax.

62.60+12.52+3.13

78.25
