I NEAD HELP ASAP The Lewis family dined at a restaurant. Their bill came to $52, and they plan on leaving a 19% gratuity. This m
eans that the total amount they will pay is 119% of the bill. Which calculation results in the best estimate of the total amount they will pay in dollars? Assume there is no tax. (50) (110 percent) = (50) (100 percent + 10 percent) = (50) (100 percent) + (50) (10 percent) = (50) (1.0) + (50) (0.1) = 50 + 5 = 55 (50) (120 percent) = (50) (100 percent + 20 percent) = (50) (100 percent) + (50) (20 percent) = (50) (1.0) + (50) (0.2) = 50 + 10 = 60 (60) (110 percent) = (60) (100 percent + 10 percent) = (60) (100 percent) + (60) (10 percent) = (60) (1.0) + (60) (0.1) = 60 + 6 = 66 (60) (120 percent) = (60) (100 percent + 20 percent) = (60) (100 percent) + (60) (20 percent) = (60) (1.0) + (60) (0.2) = 60 + 12 = 72
