Question

Dominic is a server at a restaurant. Each dish at the restaurant costs $8. A sales tax of 8% is charged. The total bill amount includes the sales tax of the meal. Dominic earns tips left by customers. The amount of money tipped can be represented by a percentage of the total bill. Order the tip amounts from least to greatest tip, in dollars. 4 dishes 20% tip 6 dishes 14% tip 7 dishes 11% tip

Answer 1

Answer: To find the tip amount in dollars for each order, you need to multiply the total bill amount by the tip percentage.

For the first order of 4 dishes, the total bill amount is $8 per dish * 4 dishes = $<<8*4=32>>32.

The tip amount is $32 * 20% = $6.40.

For the second order of 6 dishes, the total bill amount is $8 per dish * 6 dishes = $<<8*6=48>>48.

The tip amount is $48 * 14% = $6.72.

For the third order of 7 dishes, the total bill amount is $8 per dish * 7 dishes = $<<8*7=56>>56.

The tip amount is $56 * 11% = $6.16.

So, the tip amounts from least to greatest are $6.16, $6.40, and $6.72.
