Question

Mohammed, Karan, and Larry order a bunch of food on DoorDash and their total food and delivery bill is $86. If they want to leave the DoorDash driver an additional 25% tip on top of the food and delivery bill, what will their total cost be for the entire meal?

$2.15

$107.50

$88.50

$21.50

Answer 1

$107.50

Explanation:

Take that 25% and move the decimal point two spaces to the left. This will turn that 25% into .25

Now multiple that .25 times the $86 dollars.

That will give you the decimal 21.5, but since this is money, you would add a zero at the end to say that its fifty cents, giving you $21.50

You add that $21.50 to the $86 dollars you originally had which will give you the final answer of $107.50

Hope this helps

Answer 2

107.50

Explanation:

$86 x 25% = 21.5

86 + 21.5 = 107.50
