B $0.75
C $5.14
D $5.74

Answer 1

The tip given to waitress is $0.75. Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Cost of Dinner = $4.99

Tip to be given to waitress = 15%

We need to find the cost of tip.

The tip would actually be given 15% of the dinner cost i,e

Tip = 15% of 4.99

Solving to find tip cost

`Tip = 15\% \ of \ 4.99\\Tip=15\% * 4.99\\Tip=(15)/(100) * 4.99\\Tip=0.75`

So, the tip given to waitress is $0.75. Option B is correct.
