Question

Layla goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $16.90. A sales tax of 6% was added on. Layla tipped 14% on the amount after the sales tax was added. How much tip did she leave? Round to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

$2.50

Explanation:

6% of $16.90 is $1.014

$16.90 + $1.014 is $17.914

14% of $17.914 is $2.50796

Which we then round down to $2.50

Hope this helps!
