Question

The cost of Ms. Clark's restaurant meal is $25.50.

Answer 1

25.50 + 0.20(25.50) = 25.50 + 5.10 = 30.60

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the cost of restaurant meal of M. Clark is $25.50.

and she has given 20% of the meal's cost as a tip to the waiter.

Step 1: Calculating the amount of tip paid

$\text{amount of tip}=\frac{20}{100}\times 25.50$

Total tip paid = $5.1

Step 2: To find the total amount, we add the cost of the meal and the tip paid

Total amount = Cost of the meal + Tip paid

Total amount = $25.50 + $5.10

Total amount paid by Ms. Clark = $30.6
