The total cost of the meal is $37.80
Given:
Food bill = $30
tip = 20%
sales tax = 6%
Tip and sales tax must be based on the food bill.
Tip = $30 x 20% = $6
Sales Tax = $30 x 6% = $1.80
Food bill : 30.00
Tip 6.00
Sales tax <u> 1.80</u>
Total cost 37.80
The question is kind of all over the place. Can you clear it up a bit because it sound to me that all you have to do is simple addition and subtraction hun.
Answer: No, they are not.
Step-by-step explanation: To see if ratios are equivalent, you have to simplify them. 6:4 can be simplified to 3:2 but 19:12 cannot be simplified anymore. Since 3:2 is not equal to 19:12, they are not equivalent.
