Question

You leave a 15% tip of $3.12. How much was the bill?

Answer 1

$3.61 cents

Explanation:

Given the following question:

15% of 3.12

To find the answer we use the formula to calculate percentages, then we add that answer to the initial bill.


`(p* n)/(100)`

`(15*3.12)/(100) =15*3.12=46.8/100=0.468`

`=0.468`

Round:

`0.468`

`8 > 5`

`0.47`

`t=0.47`

Now add:

`3.14+0.47=3.61`

`=3.61`

After leaving a 15% tip, the total amount you would pay is "$3.61 cents."

Hope this helps.
