Question

6- A restaurant charges $48 on a food bill. The tax on the food bill is 9%.
If you give the waiter a 20% tip, what is the total cost of the bill?

Answer 1

Answer:

$61.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Charge for food= $48

Tax= 9%

Tip=20%

Let us find the amount of the tax and the tip

Tax

=9/100*48

=0.09*48

=$4.32

Tip

=20/100*48

=0.2*48

=$9.6

Hence the total amount paid is

=48+4.32+9.6

=$61.92
