Answer: A $14 dollar meal with a 20% tip would be $16.80. The tip would be $2.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

People generally tip 15-20% of the bill. To calculate the tip multiply the total check by 1 plus the decimal percentage tip you'd like to leave. If you wanted to leave a 20% tip, you would add 1 to 0.20 to get 1.20. Multiply 14 by 1.20 to get the total amount you'd leave including the tip which would be $16.80.

Hope this helps!
