Question

Frank and Linda just finished a meal and received their bill for $47.60. They would like to leave their server a 20 percent tip. Which expression could be used to find the total bill including gratuity?

0.2 (47.60)
47.60 minus left-bracket (0.2) (47.60) right-bracket
47.60 + left-bracket (0.2) (47.60) right-bracket
0.8 (47.60)

Answer 1

the answer is 47.60 + (0.2)*(47.60)

Answer 2

Explanation:

Tips = 20% of 47.60

= (20/100) * 47.60

= 0.20 * 47.60

Total bill = 47.60 + (0.2)*(47.60)
