Answer:
She earned $20 in tips.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to work out how much pay she'd get for 12 hours work:
12 x $11.25 = $135 for 12 hours work
Then, find out 2/5 of $11.25 to find out how much she would get for the 2/5 of an hour she worked:
2/5 of $11.25 = $4.50
Add both these sums together to get her total pay for hours worked:
$135 + $4.50 = $139.50
Subtract that sum from her total pay to find out how much money she earned in tips:
$159.50 - $139.50 = <u>$20</u>
If something is 60% off, that means it is now going to be 40% of its original price because
100 - 60 = 40
To find final price multiply the percentage as a decimal by the price.
40% is 40/100 which as a decimal is 0.4
0.4 x 100 = $40
The pants will be 40 dollars.
