Question

The Roma family wants to tip 15% of the total cost of their meal, which was $68.25. They left $15.00 on their table. Did they leave the correct amount? Explain. If not, what percentage of the total did they leave?

pls help

Answer 1

They did not leave the correct amount. They left around a 22% tip

Explanation:

15% = 0.15

68.25(0.15)

10.24

22% = 0.22

68.25(0.22) = 15.02
