Answer 1

.99

18.99

Explanation:

The answer to the first one is o.99 bc you would change 6.6% to a decimal and that would be 0.066 then you would add one to it and multiply it by 15 so the equation would look like this 1.066*15=0.99

The answer to the second one is 18.99 bc you would add 20% to 6.6% to get 26.6% and then you would change that into a decimal and add one to it to get 1.266 then multiply it by 15 to get 18.99

Answer 2

B well tip is 10% so do 15 times 10 + 15 and that will be your answer for b
