Question

The dinner check was $58.00 .If Fay gave the waiter a 20% tip, how much did she spend in all?

Answer 1

Here we have two options.
1. We can either find 20% of $58, and add that value to $58.
2. Find 120% of $58.

Option 1: $\frac{20}{100} * 58$ = 58/5 or 11.6
               $58 + $11.6 = $69.6
Option 2: $\frac{120}{100} * 58$ = $69.6
              

Answer 2

ANSWER: $69.60
Hope this helps
