Question

Madeline took 3 friends out for dinner. The cost of the meal was $46.50. She left a 20% tip. What was the total cost including the tip?​

Answer 1

Answer: $55.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The total money was the whole meal($46.50) + 20% of the $46.50

The total money was

46.50 + 46.50 ×20/100

I wrote 20/100 because 20% means 20/100

46.50+ 46.50×20/100

The total cost for Madeline (sounds familiar to Adrenaline) was $55.8
