Cost of the spa treatment = $42
Percentage of sales tax = 6%
Percentage of tips = 20%
Normally the tips amount is calculated before adding sales tax.
Then
Amount of tips given = (20/100) * 42
= (1/5) * 42
= 8.40 dollars
Amount of sales tax taken = (6/100) * 42
= 252/100
= 2.52 dollars
Then
The total amount spent for spa treatment = (42 + 8.40 + 2.52) dollars
= 52.92 dollars
So we can see that $52.92 has been spent in total for spa treatment and this amount includes a sales tax of $2.52 and a tip of $8.40.
Answer:
The top right answer choice is correct.
2.3 x 12 = 27.6
27.6 > 27.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first off, we know that:
1 foot = 12 inches
To compare the two, we first want to covert 2.3 feet into inches.
2.3 x 12 = 27.6 inches
Now that we have our two values, we need to decide which is greater than the other.
27.6 or 27.1
Both values have a decimal that shows tenths. In this problem, 6 tenths is larger than 1 tenth. Therefore:
27.6 inches > 27.1 inches
5 is less than or equal to -3+x
