First, convert the 17% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 17%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "17%" becomes 17% / 100% = 0.17 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 17% of your $24.50 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.17 by $24.50
0.17 x $24.50=$4.16.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $4.16.
This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)
$24.50 + $4.16 = $28.67.
Answer:
C. Paid $2.60 too much
Step-by-step explanation:
Gas 12 x 2.89 = 34.68
granola 2 x 1.59 = 3.18 x 1.075 = 3.4185
apple .89 x 1.075 = 0.95675
vitamin water 2 x 1.39 = 2.78 x 1.075 = 2.9885
34.68
3.4185
0.95675
+ 2.9885
---------------------
$42.04
$44.64
- $42.04
---------------------
$2.60
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
This triangle is isosceles, same as the little triangle.
If one side of the little triangle is 3x, then the little side with the tick (let's name it a) is also 3x.
That means the longer side, 2a, is 6x
This triangle is isosceles, so 6x = 4x + 20
Now, if we solve that, x = 10
The answer is 10
Hope this helps :)
Have a good day!
