Answer:
a) actual tip amount is $17
b) Total of dinner is $102.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Dinner bill = $85
Tip for server = 20%

To find actual tip we will divide the tip given to server in percent with total dinner bill and then multiply it with hundred.
Actual Tip amount =
In Calculator first we will put 20 multiplied 85 we get 1700 and then in Calculator we will put 1700 and then divide by 100 we get $17
Hence the actual tip amount is $17.
b) We need to find the total of the dinner.
To find total of the dinner we will add dinner bill with actual amount paid to server.
Total of dinner = Dinner bill + Actual tip amount = $85 + $17 = $102
In Calculator we will first put the number 85 and then add 17 with it which gives 102
Hence Total of dinner is $102.
