Question

A group of friends in Chicago watched a televised bullfight. They ordered 3 pizzas ($15 each), 15 drinks ($1.50 each), and 6 large nachos ($5.80 each). After adding 5% and a 20% tip to the total, what did they pay for the food? (The tip is 20% of the total before the tax is added) around the answer to the nearest while cent

Answer 1

$127.875

Explanation:

cost of 3 pizzas= $15*3

cost of 3 pizzas=$45

cost of 15 drinks=$1.50*15

cost of 15 drinks=$22.5

cost of 6 nachos=$5.80*6

cost of 6 nachos=$34.8

Total cost = pizza cost+ drinks+nachos

total cost=$45+$22.5+$34.8

total cost=$102.3

Now ,

Tip cost=$102.3*20%

=$20.46

tex cost=$102.3*5%

=$5.115

Bill which all friends pay=total cost+ tip cost+tex cost

= $102.3+$20.46+$5.115

=$127.875
