Answer 1

Answer:

Total cost of meal is $60

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of meal = $50

Tip = 20%

We need to find total cost of meal

First find 20% of 50 to get the amount given for tip

$20\% \:of\: 50\\=\frac{20}{100}\times 50\\=10$

So, tip given is $10

Total cost of meal = 50+10 = $60

So, total cost of meal is $60
