Question

Dracula's bill at the restaurant was $54.83. He left a tip of 15%.

What was the tip amount (nearest hundredth)?


PLEASE ANSWER QUICK :,(

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{ \$ \ 8.22}`

Explanation:

Bill = $54.83

Tip = 15 % of 54.83

[% means out of 100, "of" means to "multiply"]

Tip:

= 15% of 54.83

= 15 / 100 * 54.83

= 0.15 * 54.83

= $ 8.22

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`

Hope this helped!

Answer 2

15% as a decimal is 0.15

Multiply the amount of the bill by the percentage:

54.83 x 0.15 = 8.22

The tip was $8.22
