1/7 x 9/4 = 9/28
This process to solving division involving fractions is called “keep, change, flip”
He paid ...
-- The cost of the lunches (100% = 1.00 of it)
-- 15% of the cost as a tip (15% = 0.15 of it)
-- 12% of the cost as sales tax (12% = 0.12 of it)
Total that he paid = (1.00 + 0.15 + 0.12) = 1.27 of $248.40
= $315.47 .

Answer:
A ≈ 2 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle using Heron's formula is
A = 
where s is the semiperimeter and a, b , c the sides of the triangle.
s =
=
=
= 4.5
Then
A = 
= 
= 
≈ 1.9843...
= 2 ft² ( to the nearest square foot )
