Question

Smoothies weren't cutting it so we went to Red Robin to order a burger. Our bill was $5.79. Avon has a 5.25% tax and our

waitress earned a 15% tip. What was the total bill?

Answer 1

$6.96

Explanation:

5.25% of 5.79

5.79 × 5.25/100 = $0.303975 or $0.30

15% of 5.79

5.79 × 15/100 = $0.8685 or $0.87

total

$5.79 + $0.30 + $0.87 = $6.96
