To find a 20% tip, multiply the cost by 0.20

0.20x25.45=5.09

Finally, add 5.09 to 25.45.

5.09+25.45=30.54

So the total amount Santa spent was $30.54.

Answer 2

Total amount spent by Santa = $30.54

Explanation

The total amount spent by Santa is a sum of the cost of the food and the tip left.

Total amount spent = (Cost of meal) + (Tip)

Cost of meal = $25.45

Tip = 20% of (Cost of meal)

Tip = 0.2 (25.45)

Tip = $5.09

Total amount spent = (Cost of meal) + (Tip)

Total amount spent = 25.45 + 5.09

Total amount spent = $30.54
