Answer:

The family paid $55.12 in sales tax. TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>IMPORTANT FORMULA: To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

Therefore, 8% = 8/100 = 4/50 = 2/25

The family paid a total of $689 without sales tax or tips.

8% of $689 would equal the amount that the family paid for sales tax.

We already found what 8% is equal to and keep in mind that the word "of" means multiplication.

2/25 * $689 = sales tax

$55.12 = sales tax  

PART B) Now we have to find the total amount the family paid.

We have to add $689 with sales tax and tips.

We have to find tips.

Using the formula <u>To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

20% = 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5

1/5 * ($689 + $55.12) = tips

tips = $148.82

TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12
