Question

Find both the tip and the total price of the meal.

Answer 1

Given the following information in the scenario:

A family pays $29.99 for a dinner meal.

They leave a 15% tip.

A.) Let's determine first how much was the tip by this formula:

`\text{ Amount of Tip = Cost of Dinner x }\frac{\text{ \% of Tip}}{100\text{ \%}}`

We get,

`\text{ Amount of Tip = \$29.99 x }\frac{15\text{ (\%)}}{100\text{ (\%)}}\text{ = \$29.99 x }0.15`
`\text{ Amount of Tip = \$4.4985 }\cong\text{ \$}4.50`

B.) Let's determine the total price of the meal.

`\text{Total Price = Price of dinner meal + Tip}`

We get,

`\text{ Total Price = \$29.99 + \$4.50 = \$34.49 }\cong\text{ \$34.50}`

Therefore, the Family pays a total price of $34.50 for the dinner meal including the $4.50 tip.

The answer is letter D.
