Answer:

<u>The correct way of calculating the bill without tax is B. Divide the total bill by 1.17</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the cellular phone bill with tax for this month is $ 117 (100 + 17 of tax), now let's make the calculation using the four alternatives provided:

A . Divide the total bill by 0.83

117/0.83 = 140.96, therefore it's not the correct way.

<u>B. Divide the total bill by 1.17</u>

<u>117/1.17 = 100, therefore this is the correct way.</u>

C. Multiply the total bill by 0.83

117 * 0.83 = 97.11, therefore this is not the correct way.

D. Multiply the total bill by 1.17

117 * 1.17 = 136.89, therefore this is not the correct way.
