Question

Pryia and 3 friends go out to dinner and split the cost equally. The meal costs $98, tax is 9% and they leave a 20% tip based the cost of the meal. How much money does Pryia need?

Answer 1

Answer:

$42.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Cost of meal= $98

tax= 9%

Tip= 20%

Let us find the amount of the tax and the tip

Tax

=9/100*98

=0.09*98

=$8.82

Tip

=20/100*98

=0.2*98

=$19.6

Hence the total amount paid is

=98+8.82+19.6

=126.42

The amount paid by Pryia

=126.42/3

=$42.14
