Question

Ella was out at a restaurant for dinner when the bill came. Her dinner came to $9. After adding in a tip, before tax, she paid $10.44. Find the percent tip.

Answer 1

1.44 is the answer to the question

Answer 2

16%

Explanation:

So first we find the tip

$10.44 - $9 = $1.44

Express the tip as a percentage of the bill before tip:

$1.44 divide by $9 =0.16

0.16 *100= 16%
