Question

You and a friend buy two fruit smoothies and leave a tip. You split the total and your half cokes to 3.60. What percent tip (in decimal form) did you and your friend leave if the fruit smoothies cost $3 each?

Answer 1

If you bought a $3 smoothie and your total (with tip) is $3.60, you have to divide 3.6/3. You get 1.2, which means you left a 20% tip, which would be .2 in decimal form.
