Question

If 8% tip is given on a dinner bill, and the tip amount was $13.50, how much was the dinner bill after the tip was added?

Answer 1

Answer: $14.58

Step-by-step explanation: 8% of $13.50 is $1.08 so $1.08 + $13.50 = $14.58

Answer 2

The answer is 182.25 $

Explanation:

1) 8 % - 13.50 $

100 % - x $ ( I will solve this problem using an equation)

2) 8 / 13.50 = 100 / x

8x = 1350

x = 168.75 ( I solved this equation using cross-multiplication)

3) 168.75 + 13.50 = 182.25 $ ( dinner bill + tip)

Hope this helps))))
