Answer:

The amount of the bill was $150.

Explanation:

With the information provided, you can use a rule of three to find the amount of the bill which would represent 100% given that $27 represent 18%:

18% → 27

100% → x

x=(100*27)/18

x=150

According to this, the answer is that the amount of the bill was $150.
