Question

After eating at a restaurant, Mr. Jackson's bill before tax is $52.50. The sales tax rate is 8%. Mr. Jackson decides to leave a 20% tip for the waiter. How much will the total bill be, including tax and tip?

Answer 1

$67.2

Explanation:

8% of $52.50

52.5 × 8/100 = $4.2

20% of $52.50

52.5 × 20/100 = $10.5

total

$52.5 + $4.2 + $10.5 =$67.2
