Question

Adelaide paid $35 for a manicure and gave the manicurist a 20% tip how much money did Adelaide give her manicurists for the manicure and tip

Answer 1

The amount of money Adelaide paid for the manicure including the tip to the manicurist is $35. So the amount paid by Adelaide includes both the payment for manicure as well as the payment for tip. The percentage of tip given is 20%. Firstly it is necessary to find the amount of tip given. Then only the amount given for the job of manicyre can be easily found.
Amount of tip given to the manicurist by Adelaide = (35 * 20/100) dollars
                                                                               = 7 dollars
So Adelaide gave $7 as tip to the manicurist.
amount of money paid for the actual manicure job = (35 - 7) dollars
                                                                                 = 28 dollars
So Adelaide paid $28 for the manicure that was done by the manicurist.
