Question

A restaurant in Richmond, BC, lists the prices on its menus in fractions of a dollar. Three friends have lunch at the restaurant. Each of 3 friends orders a veggie mushroom cheddar burger for 11 % ( , with a glass of water to drink.

What was the total bill be fore taxes, in fractions of a dollar?

Answer 1

If each of the 3 friends orders a veggie mushroom cheddar burger for 11%, the cost of each burger would be:

11% of $1.00 = $0.11

Since the prices are listed in fractions of a dollar, we can express the cost of each burger as 11/100 of a dollar.

So, the total cost of 3 veggie mushroom cheddar burgers would be:

3 x 11/100 = 33/100 = $0.33

Assuming that the glass of water is free, the total bill before taxes would be $0.33 for the 3 burgers. However, it's important to note that this calculation is based on the assumption that the prices are listed in fractions of a dollar, which may not be the case. If the prices are listed in a different unit, the calculation would need to be adjusted accordingly.
