Answer:

$1.20

Step-by-step explanation:

He has to leave 100% of the cost which is $5.50 + 2.50 or $8.00.

He wants to leave 115% of the $8 he has to leave.

So you set it up like

x/8 = 115/100

Then you solve for x

8(115) = 920

920/100 =9.2

So he will leave $9.20.

It then asks for just how much the tip is that he will leave so

9.2 - 8 = 1.2

So the tip is $1.20.

A restaurant adds a 20% tip to the bills of parties of 6 or more people. Suppose a server waits on five such tables. The bill
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

$218.70

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to first convert the percentage to the decimal.

20% = 0.2

Now, you need to find 20% of each bill by multiplying each bill by 0.2.

0.2(185.45) + 0.2(205.20) + 0.2(195.05) + 0.2(245.80) + 0.2(262.00)

Because of the distributive property, you can add up the bills and multiply the sum by 0.2.

0.2(185.45 + 205.20 + 195.05 + 245.80 + 262.00)

0.2(1093.50)

218.7
