Answer:

Tip= $25

Explanation:

First, we need to round the bill to the nearest tenth.

Bill= 47.84 = 50

Now, we can calculate the tip using the following formula:

Bill proportion= 50% = 0.5

Tip= Bill*tip proportion

Tip= 50*0.5

Tip= $25

On a $50 bill, the tip is $25. The total amount to pay is $75.
