You want to leave a 15% tip on a meal that cost $15.77.
First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $15.77 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $15.77, or
0.15 x $15.77=$2.37.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $2.37.
This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)
$15.77 + $2.37 = $18.14
$18.14 is your answer
Answer:
$57.5 is the total cost to build the pen.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
A livestock pen is built in the shape of a rectangle.
The length of rectangle is two times the width.
Let l be the length of rectangle and w be the width of rectangle. Thus, we can write

Perimeter = 30 feet

Putting values,

The length of rectangle is 10 feet and width of rectangle is 5 feet.
If the material used to build the pen is $ 1.75 per foot for the longer sides and $ 2.25 per foot for the shorter sides
Cost of building =

Thus, $57.5 is the total cost to build the pen.
