PLEASE HELP, THANK YOU!:

If you tax your server 18% on a $45 meal, how much tip would the server receive?
If sales tax is 8.5%, how much tax would be added to a $94 item?

The answer to question 1 is $8.10.

I got this by finding 18% of $45, which I assume is what the server's tax/tip is.

The answer to question 2 is 7.99.

I got this by finding 8.5 percent of 94 dollars, which is the tax.

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!
