Question

If Maria left a $10.16 tip on a breakfast that cost $86.89, approximately what percentage was the tip.

Answer 1

Answer:

approx: 11.693%

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide the tip by the cost:

10.16/86.89

which =

0.11692945103

To get it to a percent we multiply by 100:

0.11692945103x100=

11.692945103

now all we need to do is add the percentage

11.692945103%

And it says approximately so that means round. A good place to round in a number as large as this is the thousandths place, so since the 9 next to the 2 is closer to 10 we make the 2 a 3 to fully complete the rounding.

= 11.693%
