Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

First

Get totals for food items:

Pizza $14.95 ×2=$29.90

Salad=$4.35

Drinks $2.49 ×4=$9.76

Total Bill

$29.90

$ 4.35

<u>+</u><u>$</u><u> </u><u>9.76</u>

$44.21 Food Bill

Second Step

Find Tip Amount Before Tax

Total Bill $44.21 × .15=$6.63 Tip

Third Step

Find Tax on Total Food Bill

$44.21 × .07675=$3.39

Fourth Step

Find amount left from paying bill with tax.

Total Bill including tax:

$44.21 (bill) +$3.39 tax=$47.60

Cash $ 50.00

Total Bill - $<u>47.60</u>

$ 2.40 Change left over

Fifth Step

Find amount needed to give $6.63 tip from above.

We have $2.40 we need $6.63

Subtract $6.33 -$2.40=$4.23 more money needed for tip
