Mark and his three friends ate dinner

out last night. Their bill totaled $52.35

and they left their server an 18% tip.

There was no tax. If they split the bill

evenly, how much did each person pay?

Round to the nearest cent.

Answer:

$15.44 each

Explanation:

First let's add the tip. 18% = 0.18.

52.35 x 0.18 = 9.42.

Add the tip to the total.

9.42 + 52.35 = $61.77.

The problem says that it's Mark and his 3 friends. So there are 4 people total.

Divide the total bill (including tip) by 4.

$61.77/4 = $15.44 each.
