Answer 2

Answer:

the expression is (0.2)(38)

Step-by-step explanation:

Joelle would like to tip her hairdresser 20%.

Haricut bill was $38.00.

To find the tip amount, we multiply the tip percentage by the bill amount

tip percentage is 20%. To remove percentage we divide by 100

$\frac{20}{100} =0.2$

Tip amount =$0.2 \ times \ 38$

So the expression is (0.2)(38)
