Willie and his brothers went to TGI Mondays. Their order consisted of 3 cheeseburgers at $8.75 each, a fish sandwich for $6.75, a pizza for $14.99, and 4 sweet tea's at $2.09 each. They paid 6% sales tax and left a 15% tip. How much did the meal cost?

Answer 1

Answer:$68.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation of bill value

Cheeseburgers  =    26.25

(8.75 x 3)

Fish Sandwich    =     6.75

Pizza                    =    14.99

Sweet Tea

(4 x 2.09)              =    8.36

Total of items        =  56.35

Sales tax on food  =   3.381

(56.35 x 6%)          

Total bill value       = 59.731

Calculation of tips

Bill value x 15%

=59.731 x 15%

Tips paid=8.95965

Calculation of meals cost

Total meal cost = Bill value + tips

=59.731+8.95965

=$68.69

Total meal cost is $68.69
