Answer:

$56.70

Step-by-step explanation:

45 x 6% = 2.7 Multiply price of meal with the percentage of sales tax

45 x 20% = 9 Multiply price of mean with the percentage of tip

$9 is the tip amount

$2.70 is the sales tax

$45 + $2.70 + $9 = $56.70. Add the price of the meal with the sales tax and tip amount to get the total cost of the meal.
