Question

A tourist's cab fare was $12.89. If she would like to give the driver a tip of 15%, approximately how Much money should she give as a tip?

Answer 1

12.89 is our initial
to find 15% of 12.89 we multiply it by 0.15
12.89 * 0.15 = 1.9335
1.9335 is 15 % tip now we just need to add this on our initial.
12.89 + 1.9335 = 14.82 ( 14.8 )
