Given that David went out for a dinner that cost $ 75, the price at which a sales tax of 4% was applied, and left a 20% tip on $ 75, to determine the total cost of his meal the following calculation must be performed:
75 + (75 x 0.2) + (75 x 0.04) = X
75 + 15 + 3 = X
93 = X
Therefore, the total cost he payed for his meal was $ 93.
