Question

Think of your favorite spot to get food from. You are going there to get your first meal after quarantine and the meal cost $35. You want to leave a 18% tip on the meal. How much will you be paying in total?

Answer 1

You will be paying $41.30 in total.

Explanation:

The cost of the meal is $35 and you want to leave 18% tip on the meal.

We want to find the total amount that will be paid.

First, we have to find 18% of $35 and then, add it to the original bill ($35).

18% of 35 is:

18/100 * 35 = $6.30

The tip is $6.30, therefore, the total amount paid will be:

$35 + $6.30 = $41.30

You will be paying $41.30 in total.
