Question

A group of friends goes out to lunch and decides to split the bill. Their bill is $32. 50, plus they want to leave a 20% tip. The final amount will be split 4 ways. Hint: This is a multi step problem. First figure out the tip amount. Then add that to the bill. Then divide by 4. Question 4 options: $7. 50 $8. 15 $9. 75 $9. 50.

Answer 1

10% of $32.50 is $3.25 so 20% is $6.50

then, $32.50 + $6.50 =$39.00

$39.00 ÷ 4 = $9.75 a piece
