Question

The Jackson family went out to dinner. The price of the meal was $43.45. The sales tax was 7% of the price of the meal. The tip was 15% of the meal and the sales tax. How much money did the Smith family pay for the meal, including tax and tip?

Answer 1

Answer: 53.40

Explanation:

Tax = 7% of 43.45 = 3.04

Tip = 15% of (3.04 + 43.45) = 6.91

Total = 43.45 + 3.04 + 6.91
