Answer:

rate =16.5 %

Explanation:

First determine how much you gave as a tip

40-34.35 = 5.65

The order * tip rate = tip

34.35 * rate = 5.65

Divide each side by 34.35

34.35 * rate / 34.35 = 5.65/34.35

rate =.164483261

Change to percent form

rate = 16.4483261%

To the nearest tenth

rate =16.5 %
