Given:

Total price of dinner = 48

They tipped the server 20 % of that amount.

To find:

The amount of tip.

Solution:

According to the question,

Amount of tip = 20 % of Total price of dinner

Total price of dinner = 48


\text{Amount of tip}=(20)/(100)* 48


\text{Amount of tip}=(1)/(5)* 48


\text{Amount of tip}=(48)/(5)


\text{Amount of tip}=9.6

Therefore, the amount of tip is 9.6.
