Given:

Antonio had his hair cut at the salon. After he returned home, he realized he had accidentally tipped the stylist 111% of the cost of the hair cut.

If the hair cut cost $21.95.

Now, to find the money the stylist was tipped.

Cost of haircut = $21.95.

Percentage the stylist was tipped = 111%.

Now, to get the money the stylist was tipped:


111\%\ of\ 21.95


=(111)/(100) * 21.95


=1.11* 21.95


=\$24.36.

Therefore, the money stylist tipped was $24.36.
