Answer 1

Answer:

i got you bro

Step-by-step explanation:

It is very easy to estimate 10% of any number - just divide by 10 by moving the decimal point one place to the left.

Once you know 10% of an amount, it is possible to find 5% by dividing the value that is 10% by 2. Adding these answers gives a quick estimate of 15%

For example: "Find 15% of 300"

10% of 300 = 30 and 30÷2=15

15% of 300 = 30+15 =45

In the same way for this question ...

Treat 89.50 as $90 Find 10%, then 5%.

#10% +5% = 9+13.50#

15% of the bill is about $13.50

Answer 2

About $13 dollars rounded to the nearest whole dollar and $13.40 rounded to the nearest tenth.
