To get 63/80 converted to decimal, you simply divide 63 by 80. Don't worry. You don't need to get the calculator out, because I did this for you.
63/80 as a decimal is:
<span>0.787500</span>
You need to multiply 1 and 5 plus 2.
and for 5 2/7 it would be 5 times 7 plus 2.
So...
5 2/7= 37/7
1 2/5= 7/5
13: multiply the amount by the tax rate (to make a percent a decimal move the decimal point 2 places to the left) and add the original amount and the taxed amount together. For 12 do above but then multiply the total by the tip rate and add together (basically the same as the tax again) :) I hope this helps
A fixed expense<span> is an </span>expense<span> that will be the same total amount regardless of changes in the amount of sales, production, or some other activity. A good example of this is rent or a mortgage.</span>
