Drew's neighbor pays him $35 to mow
her lawn and she always gives him a 20%
tip. He decides to mow the lawn with his
friend and split the earnings evenly. How
much will each of them make?

Answer:

Explanation:

Ok lets find 20% of 35 first.

20% of 35 is just 2 lots of 10%

10% of 35 is 3.5 if we move over the decimal

2 lots of 3.5 is 7

add the tip on

35 + 7 = 42

42 / 2 = 21

They each get $21

good luck mate!
