Question

The Richardson family is out to dinner at their favorite restaurant. The bill comes to $28.85 How much money should they leave for the bill and a 20% tip? Please explain step by step

Answer 1

The answer would be $34.62.

To find the tip you have to do
28.85 x 20% which is 0.2 as a decimal
and you get $5.77. That is the tip you would leave, so you add that to the amount of the bill $28.85 + $5.77 = $34.62
