Mrs. Markum took her family to a restaurant for dinner. The bill was $39.50.

She had a 15% off coupon, and left a 20% tip on the original bill (before the
coupon). How much did Mrs. Markum pay?

Answer: $41.47

Step-by-step explanation: .15 x 39.50 = 5.925 (round up to 5.93), 39.50-5.93=33.57, .20 x 39.50 = 7.90, 33.57 + 7.90 = $41.47
